Abstract
A method for detecting an anomaly, associated with a magnetic locating device including a first magnetic element and a second magnetic element that are associated with a first object and with a second object, respectively. The first object includes a first movement sensor configured to determine a first datum dependent on inclination of the first object in a basic reference frame, or the terrestrial reference frame. The method includes: determining the first datum from the first movement sensor; determining a second datum dependent on inclination of the second object in the basic reference frame; determining at least one orientation parameter with the magnetic locating device using the first and second magnetic elements; using the at least one orientation parameter and the first and second data to generate an indicator of presence of the anomaly.
