MAG2GEO()
Convert from geomagnetic to geographic coordinates
Converts from GEOMAGNETIC (latitude,longitude) to GEOGRAPHIC (latitude, longitude). (altitude remains the same)
gcoord=mag2geo(mcoord)
mcoord = a 2-element array of magnetic [latitude,longitude], or an array [2,n] of n such coordinates.
None
a 2-element array of geographic [latitude,longitude], or an array [2,n] of n such coordinates
None
IDL> gcoord=mag2geo([90,0]) ; coordinates of magnetic south pole IDL> print,gcoord 79.300000 -71.409990
