Hi Stepan, I think the problems at this point are all due to the visual representation. Colors and arrow lengths are field strength, red being large and green to blue being relatively smaller. I am not sure why the field is cut off on the downstream side, but still well past z=0, in this image but I'm pretty sure that's a problem with the visualization based on the map data I saw that goes into this.
