How do you find the Bouguer anomaly?

The four basic input parameters needed to calculate a complete Bouguer anomaly are: (1) the height of the gravity station above the GRS80 reference ellipsoid, (2) the latitude of the station in WGS84 coordinates, (3) the drift- and tide-corrected observed gravity readings tied to an absolute gravity base station, and ( ...

What is terrain correction?

1. n. [Formation Evaluation] The positive gravity correction that accounts for the deviation of the topography from the horizontal slab of infinite extent assumed in the Bouguer correction.
