Popis: A calibration procedure for calibrations of triaxial magnetometers is presented. The procedure uses a triaxial Helmholtz coil system and an Overhauser scalar magnetometer and is performed in the Earth's field range. The triaxial coils are first calibrated with the Overhauser magnetometer, and subsequently, a triaxial magnetometer calibration is performed. As opposed to other calibration approaches, neither Earth's field nulling system nor movements of the magnetometer are needed. A real calibration test was carried out-the extended calibration uncertainty was better than 430 ppm in sensitivity and 0.06{\deg} in orthogonality.
