Aeromagnetic Compensation Software
REINMAG
Purpose
REINMAG is a new aeromagnetic compensation system developed on the classic
Leliak aircraft magnetic interference model extended by stochastic process modeling
magnetic field anomaly and magnetic field gradient. REINMAG has been successfully applied to a variety of aeromagnetic systems.

| Aeromagnetic system mounted on An-2 aircraft (sensor type: cesium vapor) |
Features
 |
| Calibration and Survey routes. |
- As usually the process requires a calibration with a series of pitch, roll and yaw motions on the four different headings. But unlike other systems calibration headings and survey routes could be of different directions.
- REINMAG uses GPS receiver data and measurements of quantum and fluxgate
magnetometers obtained during calibration motions and a Kalman filter to estimate
compensation parameters.
- REINMAG outputs file in Geosoft Script format with parameters for data post-processing and binary file for real-time compenstaion in Navdat system.
