Magnetic Declination
The difference between the north geographic pole and
the north magnetic pole is known as magnetic declination,
or more plainly, declination. The angle of declination is
different at different locations on the earth. The
geographic and magnetic poles are aligned so declination
is minimal. From some locations, the angle between the
two poles can be fairly large.
Table 4 is a list of the current angles of declination by
location. For other declination values, contact your local
Geomagnetic Institute.
To set the Meter with the correct compensation for your
location:
1. Push
