The South Magnetic Pole is one of the two points on the Earth's surface where its magnetic field points directly upward. It is not the same as the geographic South Pole, which is located at 90 degrees south latitude. The South Magnetic Pole is the location where the Earth's magnetic field lines are vertical, and it is the point where a compass needle would point straight down.
