Magellan is a marine magnetic modeling program, mostly used by geophysicists who are trying to fit a forward model to data collected along spreading flowlines of mid ocean ridges.

Magellan is based on the forward method of modeling where the user tweaks parameters (spreading rates, jumps, magnetization, etc.) of the model until a good fit has been made to actual observations. It produces figures with the magnetic model and measurements, pseudofaults and failed rifts, along with bathymetry and arrangement of the magnetized blocks.

Magellan is meant to enable users, both researchers and programmers to more easily modify source code and improve the software. Python was chosen as the programming language to make the code cleaner and easier to read.
