Understanding gravity gradiometry processing and interpretation through the Kauring test site data
نویسندگان
چکیده
With the technological advancements in gravity gradiometry instrumentation, there is a need for understanding both the information content of modern gravity gradiometry data relative to traditional gravity data, and for developing processing and interpretation tools that assess the myriad of measured gradient components and information they contain. The Kauring Airborne Gravity Gradiometry Test Site and associated data provide a unique and important opportunity to address these two aspects and to explore the applicability of existing tools.

3-D Cauchy-type integrals for terrain correction of gravity and gravity gradiometry data
S U M M A R Y Fundamental to complex analysis is the Cauchy integral theorem, and the derivation of Cauchytype integrals. For over 40 yr, Cauchy-type integrals have been used to describe analytical continuation, establish the location of singular points, and study non-single-valued solutions of inverse problems in 2-D potential field theory. In this paper, we revive this interesting and fundame...
متن کاملPotential field migration for rapid imaging of gravity gradiometry data
The geological interpretation of gravity gradiometry data is a very challenging problem. While maps of different gravity gradients may be correlated with geological structures present, maps alone cannot quantify 3D density distributions related to geological structures. 3D inversion represents the only practical tool for the quantitative interpretation of gravity gradiometry data. However, 3D i...
متن کاملPotential field migration for rapid 3D imaging of entire gravity gradiometry surveys
Introduction Gravity gradiometry has come to be routinely integrated into exploration workflows, since it can provide an independent measure of the subsurface density distribution. 3D density models derived from gravity gradiometry data are used to improve velocity models used in seismic imaging of complex salt and basalt structures. The advantage of gravity gradiometry over other gravity metho...
متن کاملGICUDA: A parallel program for 3D correlation imaging of large scale gravity and gravity gradiometry data on graphics processing units with CUDA
The 3D correlation imaging for gravity and gravity gradiometry data provides a rapid approach to the equivalent estimation of objective bodies with different density contrasts in the subsurface. The subsurface is divided into a 3D regular grid, and then a cross correlation between the observed data and the theoretical gravity anomaly due to a point mass source is calculated at each grid node. T...
متن کاملUnderground contour (UGC) mapping using potential field, well log and comparing with seismic interpretation in Lavarestan area
Coastal Fars gravimetry project in Fars province was carried out to find the buried salt domes and to determine characteristics of faults in this area. The Lavarestan structure was covered by 4203 gravimetry stations in a regular grid of 1000*250 m. Depth structural model of this anticline made in previous studies was based on geological evidences and structural geology measurements. In order t...
