| As part of an ongoing project to provide magnetic data from parts of the
world where distribution of magnetic observatories is sparse,
three Atlantic installations have been established in addition
to our long standing UK sites. The data from these observatories
will not only aid scientific research into rates of change of
the magnetic field and increase the accuracy of the BGS Global
Geomagnetic Model, but will also provide data to exploration
geophysicists engaged in current and future oil exploration.
