Results of the satellite magnetic measurements could make a valuable contribution in the geological and tectonic mapping and a deep structure study. New sights at an opportunity of the long wavelength anomalies interpretation have come when the first magnetic anomaly maps were constructed on the base of the satellite observation. The morphology of the regional lithosphere magnetic anomalies discovered above the East Europe and Siberia from the experimental data obtained by CHAMP satellite was analyzed. Its probable nature and links with the tectonic structure of these areas were discussed. Fragments of the several scales maps of the satellite anomaly magnetic field were constructed and examined. Interpretation of these maps shows that the magnetic anomalies are connected with the modern large-scale geological and tectonic elements of the foundation, but at the same time they are not well and not always correlated with the surface geological structures.
