Scientific paper

We present the SuperMAG initiative which will use data from all available ground magnetometer stations. Performing global studies utilizing ground magnetometer data from many different institutions is currently complicated by the use of different coordinate systems and baseline determination techniques. While the former causes an impediment for the user the latter can prevent studies from being performed. There is currently a need for a community data-service in which these obstacles are removed thereby enabling the investigator to focus his/her time on the research rather than the data processing. In the SuperMAG initiative these issues are taken care of and the user can take full advantage of the unique temporal and spatial coverage provided by the ground based magnetometers. We present the coordinate system of choice, the objective automated baseline technique, and an overview of the data-products that SuperMAG will provide.
