A network of modern gravity control base in Central America and South America
Main Article Content
Abstract
As gravity values are becoming increasingly important for various geodetic and geophysical studies, and as there is a certain degree of confusion in regard to gravity base values in Central and Soulh America, the authors have undertaken a review and analysis of published gravity values in the arca and endeavored to prepare a set of reliable values that can be used: (a) for establishing the absolute datum of local gravity surveys; (b) for the calibration standards being used by different groups; and (c) as control values for adjusting gravity anomaly maps to a common calibration standard and datum through anomaly comparison where the original observational data are not available.
