World Data Center for Geomagnetism, Kyoto

The World Data Center for Geomagnetism, Kyoto is operated by the Data Analysis Center for Geomagnetism and Space Magnetism, Graduate School of Science, Kyoto University (DACGSM). The DACGSM has three functions; data services, education for under-graduate and graduate students and research on geomagnetism and solar-terrestrial physics.

The data available here include:
     Geomagnetic Indices
     Real-time Geomagnetic Field Data
     Geomagnetic Field Data From Observatories (Processed/Final)
     Geomagnetic Field Models
     Miscellaneous
