Satellite magnetic field data over India are examined in order to determine the usefulness of vector magnetic measurements in crustal studies. The procedures for isolating components of crustal origin from the magnetic field data in order to develop an anomaly map are described. The generated maps for B, X, Y, and Z fields are compared with the anomaly map of the Indian region by Langel et al. (1982b). The generated maps exhibit better resolution than the maps of Langel et al. and display features associated with the Indian Ocean geoid low. The internal consistency of the reduction technique is evaluated by comparing three vector B maps with a map derived from direct measurements; good correlation is observed demonstrating the applicability of the maps to crustal studies.
