Dygogram is the name of a curve, invented by Archibald Smith and employed in his Admiralty Manual of the Deviation of the Compass, to give a graphic representation of the varying magnetic field of a compass as the ship is swung round in azimuth; a description is given of the Dygogram by Maxwell in Electricity and Magnetism, §441.
