ARCAD-3 magnetospheric regions
Description
ARCAD-3 magnetospheric regions. This is an indicator to know if the spacecraft is possibly located in one of the following magnetospheric regions: solar wind, bow shock, magnetosheath, magnetopause, magnetosphere, plasma sheet, Fairfield neutral sheet, south polar cap, south auroral oval, south cusp, north polar cap, north auroral oval, north cusp, Chappel plasmasphere, inner radiation belt, ionosphere
