g9 Absolute Gravity Data Acquisition and Processing Software
Introduction
This manual explains the operation of the Micro-g LaCoste “g” Absolute Gravity Data
Acquisition and Processing Software. The software operates in the Windows™
environment. g can be used with all MGL absolute gravimeters, including the FG-5,
A-10, FG-L gravimeters, and is capable of processing archived data collected with most
Olivia versions (after being converted to the g format using the included “Convert”
application).
The software package provides sophisticated data collection, processing and analysis
capabilities including standard environmental gravity corrections necessary for µGal
gravity measurements. The software allows the user to customize the data acquisition
program for each site including geodetic coordinates, delayed start-up, set and drop rate
and other detailed site information.
g requires a binary security file that is unique to each individual system to operate.
g users familiar with previous version of g, Olivia, or absolute gravity data acquisition
will find the software easy to use and operate. Those new to absolute gravity
measurement should read this operation manual carefully before operating any MGS
absolute gravimeter or post-processing any absolute gravity data.
System Requirements
g relies on both text and graphical output to assist users in quickly evaluating instrument
performance and results. g runs best with the following minimal standards:
