If radius | | | is used this is geocentric. longitude | Decimal | 0.0 | The longitude where magnetic values are requested. | degrees | | altitude | Decimal | 0.0 | The height above WGS84 spheroid surface where | km | | magnetic values are requested. depth | Decimal | altitude | The depth below WGS84 spheroid surface - an | km | | alternative to altitude - don't use both radius | Decimal | altitude | The radial distance from the centre of the earth. | km | | An alternative to altitude/depth and for geocentric | | | coordinates. Don't use altitude or depth when radius | | | is used. Not available with the BGGM or BGGMERR. year | Decimal | 2016.0 | The year for which magnetic field values are | year | | requested. date | Date | 2016.0 | The date when magnetic field values are requested | yyyy-mm-dd | | in the form yyyy-mm-dd. An alternative to year. | | | Don't use both. format | N/A | Use html | The format to return values. Overrides the HTML | | ACCEPT | ACCEPT header. Only one of altitude, depth or radius should be specified. Depth or altitude values may be optionally followed by a suffix to change the units: 'm' for metres, 'ft' for feet, 'km' for kilometres (the default). Valid formats are XML, JSON, CSV, TXT and HTML. The default is HTML Help information is available at: https://<server>/<cgi>/GMModels/help/<topic>?parameters Valid help topics are 'general', 'models' and 'parameters'.
