Modeling gravity and magnetic fields for crustal and upper mantle structures

Research was conducted to: (1) make a direct comparison between the gravity and magnetic fields near the ellipsoid and at the height expected for the Geopotential Research Mission (GRM) for the same geologic model, (2) obtain realistic estimates of the gradients that can be expected at the orbit height of the GRM, and (3) demonstrate the value of data that the GRM could provide for investigating upper mantle and deep crustal anomalies.

USDI requirements and programs

Interior Department plans for the utilization of data collection systems such as the one on ERTS-1 and others scheduled for future use are very briefly discussed. The savings offerred in manpower, acquisition and dissemination of useful data, and the operational potential of data collection systems are described.
