Model of the earth's magnetic field.
Evaluate the earth's magnetic field according to a model. At present only internal magnetic fields are handled. These are due to the earth's code and crust; these vary slowly (over many years). Excluded are the effects of currents in the ionosphere and magnetosphere which have daily and annual variations.
See magnetic for details of how to install the magnetic models and the data format.

Construct a magnetic model.
- Parameters
-
| [in] | name | the name of the model. |
| [in] | path | (optional) directory for data file. |
| [in] | earth | (optional) Geocentric object for converting coordinates; default Geocentric::WGS84(). |
- Exceptions
-
| GeographicErr | if the data file cannot be found, is unreadable, or is corrupt. |
| std::bad_alloc | if the memory necessary for storing the model can't be allocated. |
A filename is formed by appending ".wmm" (World Magnetic Model) to the name. If path is specified (and is non-empty), then the file is loaded from directory, path. Otherwise the path is given by the DefaultMagneticPath().
This file contains the metadata which specifies the properties of the model. The coefficients for the spherical harmonic sums are obtained from a file obtained by appending ".cof" to metadata file (so the filename ends in ".wwm.cof").
The model is not tied to a particular ellipsoidal model of the earth. The final earth argument to the constructor specifies an ellipsoid to allow geodetic coordinates to the transformed into the spherical coordinates used in the spherical harmonic sum.
Definition at line 37 of file src/MagneticModel.cpp.
Create a MagneticCircle object to allow the geomagnetic field at many points with constant lat, h, and t and varying lon to be computed efficiently.
- Parameters
-
| [in] | t | the time (years). |
| [in] | lat | latitude of the point (degrees). |
| [in] | h | the height of the point above the ellipsoid (meters). |
- Exceptions
-
| std::bad_alloc | if the memory necessary for creating a MagneticCircle can't be allocated. |
- Returns
- a MagneticCircle object whose MagneticCircle::operator()(real lon) member function computes the field at particular values of lon.
If the field at several points on a circle of latitude need to be calculated then creating a MagneticCircle and using its member functions will be substantially faster, especially for high-degree models.

| const std::string& GeographicLib::MagneticModel::DateTime |

- Returns

| std::string GeographicLib::MagneticModel::DefaultMagneticName |
( |
| ) |
|
|
static |
- Returns
- the default name for the magnetic model.
This is the value of the environment variable GEOGRAPHICLIB_MAGNETIC_NAME, if set; otherwise, it is "wmm2015". The MagneticModel class does not use this function; it is just provided as a convenience for a calling program when constructing a MagneticModel object.
Definition at line 261 of file src/MagneticModel.cpp.
| std::string GeographicLib::MagneticModel::DefaultMagneticPath |
( |
| ) |
|
|
static |
- Returns
- the default path for magnetic model data files.
This is the value of the environment variable GEOGRAPHICLIB_MAGNETIC_PATH, if set; otherwise, it is $GEOGRAPHICLIB_DATA/magnetic if the environment variable GEOGRAPHICLIB_DATA is set; otherwise, it is a compile-time default (/usr/local/share/GeographicLib/magnetic on non-Windows systems and C:/ProgramData/GeographicLib/magnetic on Windows systems).

const |

- Returns
- the description of the magnetic model, if available, from the Description file in the data file; if absent, return "NONE".
