Sažetak
Introduction to the Earth’s magnetic field and its description is presented. The short historical overview of geomagnetism in Croatia is given. Furthermore, the recent measurements and modeled values of the Earth’s magnetic field vector and its changes on the Croatian territory, together with anomalous field are shown. Good and quality geomagnetic data are essential in global or local modeling, navigation and other applied purposes. These data are provided by geomagnetic observatories, extensive surveys made on land, at sea, and from aircrafts and satellites. From all these observations only the geomagnetic observatories can ensure quality long-term measurements of the geomagnetic field and its variations. The first geomagnetic observatory in Croatia, located in the area of the National Park of Lonjsko Polje is going to start with preliminary measurements in the near future.
