Description:
The GeoMagneticInfo is an application for the Palm Pilot to compute the magnetic declination, inclination, and magnitude for any location on Earth.
Its main use is to give the current magnetic declination to correct a magnetic compass.
This application is most useful for those hiking and traveling without topographic maps in unfamiliar territory.
A magnetic compass can be off by many 10's of degrees in parts of the world.
This application is also useful for correcting the magnetic declination of old topographic maps and navigation charts.
Update Description:
v1.2 (12/6/02):
- This update provides the ability to import locations from GeoDB, and continues to incorporate a geomagnetic library to beshared with RiseSet version 2.1.
