                         the Global Muon Detector Network (GMDN). The GMDN started in 1992 
                         with only two muon detectors. It has consisted of four detectors 
                         since the Kuwait-city muon hodoscope detector was installed in 
                         March 2006. The present network has a total of 60 directional 
                         channels with an improved coverage of the sunward Interplanetary 
                         Magnetic Field (IMF) orientation, making it possible to 
                         continuously monitor cosmic ray precursors of geomagnetic storms. 
                         The data analysis methods developed also permit precise 
                         calculation of the three dimensional cosmic ray anisotropy on an 
                         hourly basis free from the atmospheric temperature effect and 
                         analysis of the cosmic ray precursors free from the diurnal 
                         anisotropy of the cosmic ray intensity.",
