UK geomagnetic observatory one-minute mean values
Digital one-minute values of the Geomagnetic field elements from Lerwick, Eskdalemuir and Hartland Observatories. Data are available from 1979 up to the present day. Most data are definitive, but recent data (within the last 2-3 years) and data between 1979 and 1982 are provisional and may be corrected in the future. 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.

Since 1983 the raw unfiltered data have been retrieved automatically from Lerwick, Eskdalemuir and Hartland via Internet connections to the BGS office in Edinburgh in near real time. The fluxgate data are filtered to produce one-minute values. These one-minute values are used to update the Geomagnetism Information and Forecast Service (GIFS).
