The Earth’s magnetic field is slowly but surely undergoing a significant change, as scientists predict an upcoming magnetic pole flip, where the North and South magnetic poles will reverse. While this ...

Abstract: This paper proposes a novel navigation method based on topological magnetic and geometric maps for outdoor mobile robots. In this method, a state of a robot is represented by a travel ...

Over the course of our planet’s history, the field has flipped hundreds of times: Magnetic north has slid toward the bottom of the planet while magnetic south has traveled north. Signatures in ...

North wasn’t always “up” on world maps. North doesn't always mean "up" when it comes to geophysics. Scientists have known for ...
