«Magnetology» is an application which permits one to watch the forecast of geomagnetic storms and the state of Earth´s geomagnetic field.

WHY IS IT SO IMPORTANT?

Geomagnetic storms adversely affect the health of humans.

They can cause aches, dizziness, rapid heart rate, and abnormal blood pressure.

People with abnormal conditions of the blood and of the cardiovascular and autonomic nervous systems are particularly susceptible to the influence of geomagnetic storms.

The degree of magnetic storms’ influence on a particular person depends on many factors, including health status, stress, physical and emotional fatigue, natural predisposition.

Not only can geomagnetic storms have a negative impact on humans, but also on communications, navigation, and power. Drones or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are most vulnerable to impact of geomagnetic storms.

By taking into account the forecast of geomagnetic storms, you can plan difficult decisions, avoid high physical stress, and protect yourself from negative consequences.

Our application will help you with this.

ABOUT THE NATURE OF THE GEOMAGNETIC STORMS

The Earths geomagnetic field changes occur under the influence of the Sun. The intensity of the impact is not constant and depends on the ongoing processes on the solar surface.

The strength of geomatic field disturbances is characterized by the value of Kp index. The Kp index can be assigned values from 0 to 9, where 0 is the absence of disturbances and 9 represents extremely strong perturbations of the earth´s geomagnetic field.

Disturbances with a Kp index of 5 and above are called storms.

The number of geomagnetic storms per year can reach 50!

Pros and cons of Магнитолог app for iPhone and iPad

Магнитолог app good for

Based on existing scientific studies, this app helps me to compare behavioral anomalies in relation to solar activity. For my personal taste the interface could be a little bit more improved.
A great, light app for keeping tabs on the planetary KP index. The app gives an average rating for each day rather than the hourly graph at NOAA, and is great for seeing an overview of the data at a glance.

Some bad moments

数字が表示されず、?マークが表示される。 "Unfortunately data temporarily unavailable". 「残念ながら、データが一時的に利用できません」 のメッセージ auだけ?知人のSoftbankは表示される。 インターネット環境あり 4GもWi-fiも駄目です 設定-モバイルデータ通信 On も確認済み auがBand1ではなくBand26を使用しているから? 今日で3日目。未解決。 -------------------------- - Application version: 1.9.2 (435) - OS: iOS - OS version: 8.4.1 - Device: iPhone 6(GSM+CDMA) - Token:
It is like a peace forecast !!! You will know if want to take a crucial thing on that day or not. Just check it out yourself.
I would like to see some information about the time of day shown with the output. I "think" the increments are three hours each but I cant tell for sure. Adding a line to show the current time would be helpful too. I would send a request to the developer for this info but I cant find a support email or any other contact. Hope this will work. Otherwise, a solid simple app.
Great tool for knowing the current level of potential RF interference for RC flyers. A+++
I have a compulsive need to keep up with the K index. Like to watch how the sun affects my environment. Thanks for a very good app.
Very helpful in understanding the Earths Magnetic fields ,for young and old .
