Topography gravity effect

When the topography effect is accurately computed, the remaining tasks will be accurate

Computed Bouguer and topography gravity effect
Computing and comparing 2 Bouguer anomalies

Comparison between existing Bouguer anomaly and Bouguer anomaly computed using our software's

Existing Bouguer anomaly

New bouguer anomaly

Difference

Existing Bouguer anomaly computed with a classical approach
New bouguer anomaly computed with our software
Difference between existing and new computed anomalies is more than 2 mGals. We can mainly observe that the higher difference values are correlated with a higher topography gradient. In the existing Bouguer anomaly, the topography effects were not completely removed !
Comparing now the amplitudes

What is the consequence when the Bouguer anomaly is badly computed (without ENOUGH accuracy) ?

The consequence

The interpretation of the existing Bouguer anomaly will provide different conclusions compared to the new Bouguer anomaly because the anomaly amplitudes are over- and under-estimated. This will generate necessary a wrong interpretation.
