Geomagnetic permanent observatory at Concordia station (Dome C)

The geomagnetic observatory DMC has been installed during the 2003-2005 Campaigns. The regular operation of the observatory consists of unmanned, continuous measurement of the variations of the geomagnetic field. Also, absolute magnetic field measurements are manually taken during the whole year.

The recorded data are:

- 1 sec measurements of the variations of the three geomagnetic field components

- 1 min averages of the variations of the three geomagnetic field components

- 5 sec measurements of the geomagnetic field scalar intensity

- 1 min averages of the geomagnetic field scalar intensity

- absolute measurements.

All the automatic recordings are delivered in almost real-time to the INTERMAGNET data bank.

All the automatic recordings are delivered in real-time to the INGV data portal.

INTERMAGNET is the global network of observatories, monitoring the Earth's magnetic field. At this site, you can find data and information from geomagnetic observatories around the world. The INTERMAGNET programme exists to establish a global network of cooperating digital magnetic observatories, adopting modern standard specifications for measuring and recording equipment, in order to facilitate data exchanges and the production of geomagnetic products in close to real-time.
