Reflight specificatons
Parameter | Data Specification |
Diurnal: | Diurnal variation in excess of 5 nT per 2 minutes |
Positional: | Line spacing should not exceed 1.25 times and not be less than 0.75 times the nominal line spacing for distances greater than 3.0 km along the flight path |
Altitude: | In excess of 15 m deviation for 5000 metres or more dependent upon safety |
On-line magnetic data: | The noise envelope of each sensor will remain below 0.2 nT outside zones where there are a pronounced magnetic gradient. |
