Alright, so in my workplace I'm analyzing an iOS backup and I have different fields on a database.

This are: MagneticX, MagneticY, MagneticZ, BiasX, BiasY, BiasZ, Level, Magnitude, Inclination, MagnitudeStd, InclinationStd.

In the following picture you can see an example: imgur(dot)com/NFyuTdx(dot)png

Thing is, I know what the Magnetic field is, but I'm trying to get the latitude and longitude from this database and the values I'm getting are wrong.

Anyone knows a way of translating Magnetic coordinates into latitude and longitude?

Thank you very much.

I did a google searched and the first hit in the list gave a great many references to your question. Happy hunting :)
Nope, you are wrong, there is nothing on google, believe me, I checked.

Maybe you are seeing a blog post or something talking about this db but it is the older version, not the actual one. Apple modified it some years ago now they don't have anything alike.
AEC. When you tell a teacher there is nothing after they have told you go look, you shoot your believably to zero. I searched "anyone knows a way of translating Magnetic coordinates into latitude and longitude". I got many links, it took me 2 minutes to find a conversion applet: http://wdc.kugi.kyoto-u.ac.jp/igrf/gggm/index.html . You have to click the choice magnetic to geographic, and enter the coordinates.
