| Summary: | Magnetic Data Acquisition System (MAGDAS) is a system of a real-time magnetometer data logger deployed by Kyushu Sangyo University of Fukuoka, Japan as part of Japan's leading contribution to International Heliophysical year of the United Nations. This paper proposed a cloud-based MAGDAS for the YU-8T magnetometer. MAGDAS is the system that measures and monitors the earth's magnetic field or geomagnetic field. Converting the old system to the new system will provide the capability to monitor the magnetic field changes continuously due to the solar activities which are harmful to the electrical appliances. To verify the workability of the system, the data from the MAGDAS Langkawi and solar event was gathered to be compared with the developed system. The location where the measurement takes place is at Pusat Sukan UiTM Shah Alam, Selangor, Malaysia (geographic latitude and longitude: 3.00N, 101.00E, and geomagnetic latitude and longitude: 6.37S, 173.65E. This project consists of the YU-8T magnetometer system, hardware, software, and cloud-based web-server. YU-8T magnetometer measures the voltage of Earth's magnetic field in the form of H, D and Z parameters to be stored in the data logger. The stored data was transferred to the cloud-based web-server through the Internet of Thing (IoT) for real-time monitoring. © 2021 Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
