In this study we compare features of magnetospheric Ultra-Low Frequency waves as they are observed on the ground and in space. In particular, the characteristics that we investigate include the waves' azimuthal mode number, using spacecraft conjunctions and azimuthally aligned magnetometer stations; the wave amplitudes and their spatial variations in space and on the ground; their occurence distribution in terms of latitudinal and local time extent, as they are seen by ground magnetometer chains and by multiple spacecraft in different locations in the magnetosphere; and their polarization. We comment on the characteristics that are mostly altered by the ionosphere and on the implications in using ground measurements in models of radial diffusion, which require the above inputs to approximate the drift-resonant interraction of high-energy particles with ULF waves.
