The World Digital Magnetic Anomaly Map: version 2.1

<p>The World Digital Magnetic Anomaly Map (WDMAM) is an initiative of the IAGA (International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy) supported by the CGMW (Commission for the Geological Map of the World) of UNESCO. The second version was released in 2015 (Dyment et al., 2015; Lesur et al., 2016), and mandate was given to the authors to update this version 2.0 using the same methodology as often as newly available data would make it necessary. Five better datasets justify the preparation and release of version 2.1: (1) the complete digital aeromagnetic map of Brasil made available to CGMW by Ag&#234;ncia Nacional do Petr&#243;leo, G&#225;s Natural e Biocombust&#237;veis; (2) an improved version of the aeromagnetic map of Russia prepared at VSEGEI; (3) the second version of the Antarctic Digital Magnetic Anomaly maP (ADMAP; Golynsky et al., 2018) which construction results from a remarkable international effort during and after the Second International Polar Year; (4) a new map of the Caribbean plate and Gulf of Mexico resulting from the compilation and re-processing of existing marine and aeromagnetic data in the area (Garcia, 2018); and (5) a new compilation of marine magnetic data worldwide. The new map shows significant improvements over the previous versions and will be shortly available at wdmam.org.</p>
