Abstract
The article describes the use of a vector ferromagnetic magnetometer placed on an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). It is shown that solving inverse problems of magnetic prospecting for a vector aeromagnetic survey makes it possible to identify areas with different magnetization. We present a simple, based on standard libraries, software product for processing primary data of three-component fluxgate magnetometers, which allows correctly selecting the magnetic induction vector components when performing magnetic UAV surveys. To build maps, a method for graphical display of a vector field is proposed. On the example of a man-made object, we demonstrate that vector fields measured at different heights provide significantly more information than conventional electromagnetic induction measurements.
