originator
The gravity station data (1294 records) were compiled by the Alaska Geological Survey and the U.S. Geological Survey, Menlo Park, California. This data base was received in September 1986. Principal gravity parameters include Free-air Anomalies and Simple Bouguer Anomalies (no terrain correction applied) and topographic elevations to compute the anomalies. The observed gravity values are referenced to the International Gravity Standardization Net 1971 (IGSN 71). The gravity anomaly computation uses the Geodetic Reference System 1967 (GRS 67) theoretical gravity formula. The data are randomly distributed within the boundaries of central Alaska.
To provide easy access to global and regional gravity data and related models for scientific studies.

Horizontal Positional Accuracy Report
Horizontal accuracy varies from source contributor to source contributor. However, horizontal positions are usually taken from topographic maps of the area being surveyed. Accuracy may range up to +/- 100 feet.
Vertical Positional Accuracy Report
Vertical accuracy varies from source contributor to source contributor. However, vertical positions are usually taken from topographic maps of the area being surveyed, monumented benchmark locations, or they are determined by the use of the Global Positioning System (GPS). Accuracy may range from meters to centimeters or better.

Quantitative Attribute Accuracy Assessment
Statistical analysis.
Gravity data values are the result of the measurement of small variations in the gravitational field of the earth. The magnitudes and ranges of these variations are well known in the potential field discipline.

Variable: the average acceleration on the Earth's surface is
about 980 centimeters per second squared, which is equal to 980 gals, but
increases by about 1/2 percent from equator to pole.
