A high performance inertial system that includes magnetometers can provide accurate platform heading information in a variety of applications and operational environments. However, performance depends greatly on where the inertial system is installed within the application.

In our white paper, you’ll learn integration guidelines for inertial systems and operational compensation considerations. It includes information on:

• Sources of magnetic field distortion
• Platform considerations
• Evaluating and compensating for magnetic disturbances
