GRM as a follow-on to MAGSATMAGSAT was the first near-Earth spacecraft dedicated to measurement of the vector geomagnetic field. Its objectives were to use the vector measurements to measure and model both the main field and the crustal field of the Earth. The main field measurements were to be used for the 1980 world charts and to study the Earth's core. The crustal fields were to be utilized to aid in modeling large-scale variations in the geologic and geophysical characteristics of the crust.
