Can you help scientific research with iPhone for students?
Hi, my name is Sunghyun Jeon.
I was in the second year of elementary school when I first saw iPhone.
I was surprised when I ran the compass app in iPhone.
The reason is because there are two norths that compass is heading.
So I searched at Wikipedia to find "north".
Although Earth is a big magnet, the magnetic field doesn’t go straight ahead. So every place is different from all compass headings.
The magnetic declination is the angle between true north and magnetic north.
I have tried to measure the magnetic declination with the iPhone after I had developed the iTouchEarth app.
So I have made Korean declination map.
Isn’t that amazing?
Because we can observe the interior of Earth with iPhone.
I expect the next surprise.
I’d like to share the iTouchEarth, that measures the magnetic declination, like Open Source Project and measure the magnetic declination of Earth with you, although I am too young to submit my app to Apple.(I'm 13 years old.)
Please visit www.iTouchEarth.org and Facebook/iTouchEarth.org.
Let’s measure the magnetic declination with my source code. It will be very useful for many students.
If you are interested in this project, please download and compile my source code. Next, please send the result data to here(www.facebook.com/iTouchEarth.org). Thank you.
