Abstract
We wanted to make a satellite altitude magnetic anomaly map of the large magnetic anomaly in the Central African Republic, the Bangui magnetic anomaly, with data from the Swarm satellites. In the first part of our study, we summarize the earlier investigations and their interpretation. In the second we discuss our data processing applied to produce a magnetic anomaly map. We used the IGRF
Highlights
Satellite altitude magnetic measurements originate in the crust
It can be concluded that the inverse calculation of 14 parameters represents the anomaly field
The anomaly field obtained by inversion shows a proper range but the origin of the anomaly field has not been decided unambiguously
Summary
Satellite altitude magnetic measurements originate in the crust. The interpretation of these data has a longer history. They started with data from Cosmos, POGOs, Magsat, Oersted, CHAMP and SAC-C satellites. A summary of these satellites is given by Langel and Hincze [1]. The recent SWARM satellites provide more data. In earlier papers by Taylor, et al [2], Taylor and Schnetzler [3] they drew the attention to the. Application of satellite anomalies for resource exploration. They suggested the appropriate altitude, the required accuracy, and errors of these measurements. We have made several geologic/tectonic interpreted of satellite magnetic anomalies see [47]
