During the coming years there will be an unprecedented opportunity to study structure and dynamics of the magnetosphere. A fleet of specialised spacecraft will very much increase our possibilities to simultaneously monitor various magnetospheric regions. However, in spite of the local character of many magnetospheric processes, for example dayside reconnection and nightside substorms, they must still be considered as global features with respect to the effects that they have on magnetospheric energy storage, transport, and release. In addition most magnetospheric disturbances appear to occur in sporadic sequences at locations not a-priori predictable. Consequently even co-ordinated data from many and multiple satellites will depend on additional information from global networks of instrumentation on the ground. In this paper the preparations of the ``ground-based'' scientific community for the support of the IACG fleet are reviewed and perspectives are outlined for promising studies using multiple satellites and co-ordinated ground-based experiments.
