Abstract
The empirical median model of the shape and position of the MIT (Main Ionospheric Trough) in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres has been developed for the first time. The model is based on the topside sounding data of the Intercosmos-19 satellite (about 2000 passes in both hemispheres) and in situ electron density Ne measurements onboard the low-orbiting CHAMP satellite (more then 20 000 passes) for high and low solar activity, accordingly.
