The role of multipoint spacecraft measurements in revealing the morphology of magnetospheric substorm is described. Information has been provided on the storage of energy in the tail during the growth phase, the thinning of the plasma sheet relative to onset, reconfiguration and energy loss after onset, and how these phenomena are controlled by the IMF. Smaller-scale phenomena that need to be observed on finer time scales and detected in more limited spatial regions were studied by ISEE 1 and 2 and a number of spacecraft near geosyncronous orbit.
