Zusammenfassung:Progress in software development and in preliminary analysis of MAGSAT tracks crossing the Indian Ocean is reported. Tracks crossing the Java Trench, Broken Ridge, the Southeast Indian Ridge, and the Ninetyeast Ridge show that magnetic anomalies correlate with some of these features. Preliminary study of anomaly profiles indicates that tracks of anomaly data (the observations minus a core field model) have a power spectrum decreasing as the inverse square of the spatial frequency. An apparent noise floor of about one to two gammas rms is reached at wavelengths of about 360 km, corresponding to approximately 10 samples of the decimated Investigator tape data at a sampling rate of approximately 4.9 sec/sample.
