Scientific paper

The nature, purpose, availability and distribution of magnetic repeat stations data are reviewed. Attention is paid to how repeat station data are obtained, sources of errors and limitations on accuracy. Repeat station results cannot achieve the accuracy of magnetic observatory estimates of the secular variation, but are, nevertheless, essential for improving the limited spatial coverage provided by observatories. The lack of appropriate standards and reporting procedures have meant that most global field molders have made little, or no, use of repeat data. Partly to rectify this problem, IAGA Working Group V-4 has instigated a scheme for systematic reporting and classification of magnetic repeat station data. The scheme will help to ensure that proper use is made of the wealth of repeat data that is available, and will also promote better observational practices.
