Airborne-magnetometer operations involve two basic problems: (1) measurement of the magnetic-field intensity; (2) navigation of the aircraft to provide the desired profile configuration and accurate mapping of the profiles flown. Currently the navigation and mapping presents the most serious problem if the operation is to be made completely airborne. A brief outline of the magnetometer instrumentation is presented, together with a discussion of the mapping problem. Examples of results are presented.
