sunkit-magex is a Python software package that provides a set of tools for the modelling of magnetic field data. It is a SunPy affiliated package and is built on top of sunpy and astropy.
Currently it only supports the potential field source surface (PFSS) model, but we hope to expand it to include other models in the future.
