Geomagnetic measurements of the net of repeat stations in the Republic of Macedonia

After the disintegration of Yugoslavia first geomagnetic measurements of three repeat stations in the Republic of Macedonia were carried out in 2002. Net of 15 repeat stations is set in 2003. Geomagnetic measurements were performed in 2003 and 2004. Republic of Macedonia not possesses Geomagnetic Observatory and the Department of Geology and Geophysics in past few years make efforts to establish it. Because of that, for the reduction of the data are used the data from neighbouring observatories: Panagiurishte - Bulgaria, L’Aquila - Italy, Grocka - Serbia, Penteli - Greece and Tihany - Hungary. The equipment from the Royal Observatory, Dourbes was used. It consists of: - 1 Diflux/GPS receiver type FLM3/A serial 001 - 1 Proton magnetometer Geometrics G816 (electronics + sensor) serial 1579 - 1 Geodetic Tripod - 1 Monocular digital compass KVH Data scope II pn#01-0162 Serial 02070033 and the equipment from the Faculty of Mining and Geology, Stip: 1 Diflux type LEMI 203 (from Tempus JEP project “Geomagnetic measurements and quality standards”) and proton magnetometers BISON and Geometrics. Field measurements included observation of the total vector of the geomagnetic field F, declination D and inclination I. On the basis of the measurements all parameters of the geomagnetic field of the Republic of Macedonia for these three years were calculated. Based on the results of the elements of the geomagnetic field geomagnetic maps were compiled
