About The XXth IAGA Workshop
We invite the community involved in geomagnetic field observations to attend the XXth IAGA Workshop on Geomagnetic Observatory Instruments, Data Acquisition and Processing to be held in Vassouras, Rio de Janeiro State, Brazil, from 31 October to 06 November 2024. The main objective of this meeting is to organize Magnetic Observatory Practice and scientific sessions for professionals and students from all over the world who are engaged in the study of geomagnetism. Also, this workshop aims to be an opportunity to improve the situation concerning the definitive data production. At the XXth IAGA Workshop we emphasize the participation of students.
The XXth IAGA Workshop will consist of three parts:
Comparison Measurements will be held at
Vassouras Magnetic Observatory (VSS). The Scientific Sessions and Summer
School will be held at the
Bliss Hotel about 0.4 km from VSS.
The XXth IAGA Workshop will include the following
topics:
- Updates on geomagnetic observatories and networks.
- Geomagnetic Observatory Practice and Data Processing.
- Geomagnetic Instrumentation.
- Geomagnetism and Applications (Magnetic Charts, Secular Variation, Space Weather,
etc...).
