1. Knowledge of the theoretical foundations of geophysics, gravimetry and magnetometry. 2. Have basic skills in working with a personal computer.
Course content
The program of the discipline focuses on the analysis of gravimagnetic fields, as well as computer principles of processing and interpretation of observed data. Approaches to solving direct and inverse problems of gravimagnetic fields are considered. The studied methods of qualitative and quantitative interpretation are explained by real examples. Characterized areas of application of gravimetry and magnetometry are characterized in the historical aspect. The consideration includes general principles of setting gravimagnetic problems, an overview of ways to implement them and efficiency.
