Airborne magnetometer
Definition
A high-precision geophysical apparatus mounted on board an aircraft or towed behind it in an aerodynamic pod, used for the continuous measurement and recording of the Earth's magnetic field intensity during flight. This instrument eliminates the magnetic interference of the fuselage and enables the remote detection of anomalies caused by geological structures or mineral deposits.
