GSadjust
January 14, 2021
GSadjust is the first comprehensive, publicly-available graphical interface for performing drift-correction and network adjustment for combined relative- and absolute-gravity surveys (Kennedy and others, 2021). The objective of network adjustment is to determine a single, best-fit gravity value at each station based on all available observations and their respective uncertainty. Typically the observations are relative-gravity differences between stations, observed with a relative-gravity meter, and absolute-gravity measurements at individual stations, observed with an absolute-gravity meter.

Procedures for field data collection, processing, quality assurance and quality control, and archiving of relative- and absolute-gravity surveys
Repeat microgravity surveys carried out using relative- and absolute-gravity meters are useful for identifying changes in subsurface mass, such as the volume of water stored in an aquifer. These surveys require careful field procedures to achieve the part-per-billion accuracy required to measure the small changes in gravity relevant for hydrologic studies.
