INTERMAGNET Data Portal

View INTERMAGNET data here: https://imag-data.bgs.ac.uk/GIN_V1/GINForms2.

The INTERMAGNET data portal is hosted at the British Geological Survey (BGS). The service includes access to all INTERMAGNET provisonal and definitive data.

The data portal offers a number of services:

• A data visualisation and download web site: https://imag-data.bgs.ac.uk/GIN_V1/GINForms2
• A description of the INTERMAGNET data access web service: https://imag-data.bgs.ac.uk/GIN_V1/
• A HAPI web service interface to INTERMAGNET data: https://imag-data.bgs.ac.uk/GIN_V1/hapi. For information about HAPI see https://hapi-server.org/.
• Statistics on how data is used, how complete data provision is and the timeliness of data provided to INTERMAGNET: https://imag-data.bgs.ac.uk/GIN_V1/GINStatistics
• Access to data from observatories that are testing their data connection with INTERMAGNET (these data may not be observatory quality - you should check with the data provider before using these data): https://imag-data.bgs.ac.uk/GIN_V1/GINTest2
• An ftp service: imag-ftp.bgs.ac.uk

We encourage you to use the web services in preference to the ftp service. It will become increasingly difficult to access ftp servers in the future – support for ftp in web browsers has already been largely withdrawn. INTERMAGNET is likely to withdraw the ftp service in the future.

Downloading Data Using DOIs

From 2015 onwards the entire definitive data set from Intermagnet is updated and published annually. This data set is called the Intermagnet Reference Data Set (IRDS).
