U.S. Isostatic Residual Gravity Grid
isores.bin - standard grid containing isostatic residual gravity map for U.S. Grid interval = 4 km. Projection is Albers (central meridian = 96 degrees West; base latitude = 0 degrees North). Sea level depth of compensation = 30.0 km, density contrast at depth = 0.35 g/cm^^3. Values are in milligals.

Supplemental Information | In addition to giving the Bounding Coordinates in latitude and longitude, the limits of coverage for the gridded and projected data sets are also given in units of measure of the projection. This is usually the distance from a central meridian (the x-coordinate), or base latitude (the y-coordinate), in meters or kilometers of the given projection. For this data set those boundaries are:The Western-most boundary: -2574 kilometersThe Eastern-most boundary: 2622 kilometersThe Northern-most boundary: 5623 kilometersThe Southern-most boundary: 2539 kilometers |
Purpose | To provide easy access to global and regional gravity data and related models for scientific studies. |
