For measurements of the geomagnetic field, the fluxgate magnetometer is used. The fluxgate magnetometer is a part of Samnet network, operating in the UK, Faroe Islands, Iceland, Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia. It is one of the 6 UK National scientific facilities for investigation of solar-terrestrial relations, which will also be included into a research of the correlation between the atmospheric electric field and substorm activity in progress. Some technical data of magnetometer are

  • 3 measured components of the Earth's magnetic field;
  • sampling interval - 1s;
  • resolution - 0.1nT.
