Geomagnetism Class

Inherits from

GEOCALCPBW_NAMESPACE::GeoBase

 

Description

The Geomagnetism class is used to calculate the specific magnetic declination for a given WGS84 position described in ellipsoidal (Lat/Long) coordinates. The underlying models provide values using the World Magnetic Models of 2010 and 2015. For more information on these models, please visit the NOAA/NGS website: http://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/geomag/WMM/DoDWMM.shtml
