Description:

This report contains a complete description of the World Magnetic Model (WMM) 2015. Section 1 contains information that users of WMM2015 require in order to implement the model and software in navigation and heading systems, and to understand magnetic charts, poles and geomagnetic coordinate systems. Section 2 contains a detailed summary of the data used and the modeling techniques employed. Section 3 contains an assessment of the model uncertainties and a description of the error model provided with the WMM2015. Section 4 contains charts of all the magnetic elements at 2015.0 and their expected annual rates of change between 2015.0 and 2020.0. These predicted changes are based upon the best knowledge of the geomagnetic main field evolution at the time the WMM was released.
