Real‑Time Airborne Magnetic Navigation with MagNav.jl
Jonathan Taylor, Albert R. Gnadt
The Earth’s crustal magnetic field is a powerful tool for navigation as an alternative to GPS. MagNav.jl is an open-source Julia software package that contains a full suite of tools for aeromagnetic compensation and airborne magnetic anomaly navigation. Alongside baseline algorithms, such as Tolles-Lawson and an extended Kalman filter, this package enables multiple approaches for real-time compensation and navigation. This talk will cover these techniques and advanced use cases for MagNav.jl.
