Low orbit (160 km altitude) satellite magnetometry is discussed. Magnetic field simulations and theoretical analyses were performed. They suggest that at 160 km, resolution value is 10, compared to 0.6 for Magsat, and that the satellite can reveal significant information on crustal tectonics. Vector and scalar magnetometers should be carried.
