Hello,
Say I wanted to create a wire model of the magnetic field of any of the planets that have one using Fortran, Python or C language.
Is there some really popular website that scientists and engineers like to go for this type of data? or is it just all over the place in all sorts of locations on the internet?
Is it even available to the public?
thank you.
I haven't checked the data, but this webpage may have what you want: http://new.planetary-mag.net/planets.html
This 2011 paper also has a pretty good overview: http://www.maths.gla.ac.uk/~rs/res/B/PlanetDyn/Schubert2011.pdf
The Science Data Centre of the European Space Agency (ESDC) contains all the publicy available data from many planetary missions. One that has a lot of magnetic field data is Venus Express.
The ESA Earth data is at https://earth.esa.int/.
If you are looking for the data that scientists use then NASA's PDS is your friend, in this specific case the PDS Planetary Plasma Interactions Node:
