Magnetometry is widely used for the characterization of areas contaminated by unexploded ordnance (UXO). To successfully discriminate hazardous UXO from nonhazardous clutter requires accurate models of the ordnance response. This paper develops an ordnance library with 15 different items using total-field magnetic data collected over a test stand. The induced and remanent magnetizations were obtained by varying the three-dimensional orientation of each item and measuring the magnetic field on a horizontal plane in the dipolar regime. Replicate measurements using multiple specimens of the same ordnance returned very similar induced magnetizations. The fitted moments were used to estimate the detection depths for different sensor noise floors. A prolate spheroid with a 3.5 aspect ratio was used to provide a good approximation to the detection depths for many of the ordnance items. Assuming a 1-nT noise floor, these orientation-dependent detection depths ranged from 10 to 17 times of the object's diameter.
