Airborne geophysical survey: Los Angeles ARMS West, California

Aeromagnetic data were collected along flight lines by instruments in an
aircraft that recorded magnetic-field values and locations. In the earlier
days of surveying, the only way to represent this data was to generate an
analog map with contour lines. This dataset is a representation of the
digitized contour lines either by following the lines or by choosing the
intersection of the contour and flight-line to create a value of the magnetic
field. The values presented are latitude, longitude, and map magnetic-field
values.

航空磁测数据由搭载于航空器的磁测仪器沿飞行航线采集，同步记录磁场强度与空间位置信息。在航空磁测业务的早期阶段，此类数据唯一的可视化载体为带等值线的模拟地图。本数据集为数字化等值线的标准化重构产物，其采样方式包含两种：一是沿等值线轨迹进行追踪采样，二是选取等值线与飞行航线的交点以获取对应磁场强度数值。数据集所包含的字段为纬度、经度与对应磁场强度数值。
