Short summary
Predicting geomagnetic activity intensity for an upcoming solar cycle is important in space weather service and for planning future space missions. The maximum aa geomagnetic index for the solar cycle is found to be well correlated with the preceding minimum. The maximum aa index of solar cycle 25 is estimated to be about 29 % stronger than that of solar cycle 24. The maximum amplitude of the sunspot cycle is much better correlated with high geomagnetic activity than low geomagnetic activity.
