Abstract: Described are the existing methods of airborne magnetic measurements. The stochastic algorithm of aeromagnetometer and aeromagnetic gradientometer deviations compensation is discussed. The integration algorithm of inertial navigation and correlation-extremal navigation systems is briefly described.
Justified is the advantage of the magnetic gradient field usage as navigational information. Results of integration algorithm numerical modeling are presented.

Keywords: correlation-extremal navigation system, aeromagnetic gradiometry, magnetic compensation, integrated navigation system.
