Abstract

The general theories and methods of marine surveying line system adjustment were introduced in Коугия (1979) and Tang (1991) . According to the characteristics of marine gravity measurement, this paper presents a new method of combined adjustment which takes into account both direct and indirect influence of position errors. The method is particularly suitable to be used in the post- processing of marine gravity observation data. With some practical applications, it is proved to be effective in improving the quality of marine gravity data.
