What will I learn?
This course delivers a practical overview of Earth's core and external magnetic field sources, key geomagnetic indices, and live monitoring systems. You'll gain skills to access and analyse Kp, Dst, AE, and local data, link geomagnetic changes to GICs and infrastructure threats, and produce clear technical reports for effective communication, forecasting, and risk mitigation strategies.
Elevify advantages
