Web-Based Information System for Modeling and Analysis of Parameters of Geomagnetic Field

Abstract

Abstract Today the specialists in many scientific and applied spheres (such as biology, medicine, geophysics, geology, technics, sociology, psychology and many others) consider parameters of geomagnetic field and its variations as one of the key factors, which can influence on systems and objects of various origins. The estimation of the influence requires an effective approach to analyze the principles of distribution of geomagnetic field parameters on the Earth's surface, its subsoil and in circumterrestrial space. The approach causes a complicated problem to be solved, which is concerned with modeling and visualization of geomagnetic field and its variations parameters. The most effective and obvious solution to this problem is supposed to be an information system, because of the data-centric character of the problem itself. In spite of wide variety of approaches for mathematical modeling and graphical visualization of various data a problem of modeling, automated analyzing and 2D/3D-visualization of geomagnetic field and its variations is still not solved. In this paper the authors suggest the solution, which is based on modern geoinformation and web technologies and provides the mechanisms to calculate, analyze and visualize parameters of geomagnetic field and its variation.
