Description:

"During the International Magnetospheric Study (1977-1979) and the subsequent data analysis phase, it was demonstrated that ground-based magnetometer data incorporated with advanced computer algorithms proposed by Fayermark (1977), Kisabeth (1979), Mishin et al. (1980), Kamide et al. (1981), and Richmond and Kamide 91987), are a powerful remote sensing tool for investigating the global distribution of polar ionospheric electrodynamic parameters, such as, ionospheric currents, field-aligned currents, ionospheric electric potentials, Joule heating, etc. Furthermore, these magnetometer methods have a great advantage in spatial and temporal coverage as compared to either satellite data or ground-based radar data, both of which require the construction of statistical, empirical models to define instantaneous and global distributions"--Introduction, paragraph 1.
