Description

DTU Space is monitoring the Earths magnetic field with a network of ground
stations in Greenland, Faroe Islands and Denmark. An array with 18 stations at coastal
locations and one on the Ice Cap is operated in Greenland. Previously 5 stations were
maintained on the Greenland Ice Cap in cooperation with Virginia Tech, USA. All stations p
rovide full vector geomagnetic field information with 1 Hz resolution. THL, GDH, NAQ and
BFE are geomagnetic observatories and calibrated to INTERMAGNET standards.
