Abstract

pymagglobal serves the purpose of replacing some Fortran scripts, which are used in the geomagnetism community to evaluate global field models. It can be applied to all cubic-spline based geomagnetic field models stored in the same file format as gufm1 or the CALSxk model series.

pymagglobal is provided as a python package. Install files for nix are included. This way pymagglobal can be easily set up under various system dependencies. The gitlab page provides installation instructions and can be found under "Related Work" in the left panel of this page. Documentation is provided using sphinx. A link can be found in the panel on the left.
