FIELD: measurement technology; magnetic prospecting, space research, magnetic navigation, and the like.
SUBSTANCE: device designed for searching mineral deposits, measuring magnetic field of near-earth space and magnetic field of planets, location of ships, and the like has three-component magnetometric transducer disposed on mobile object, three amplifier-converter units, ac voltage generator, recording unit, two angle measuring units, data processing unit, matching unit, and rotator, all interconnected in definite manner. In order to reduce error in measuring flux density of geomagnetic field measures are taken to ensure adequate positioning of three-component transducer axes relative to axes of angle measuring units and to reduce impact of errors in measuring heading, roll, and pitch angles of object and to correct projections of vector of magnetic flux density due to object magnetization at location point of three-component transducer.
EFFECT: enhanced measurement accuracy.
