Case Study on Absolute Gravity Measurement using FG-5

FG-5 절대중력계 사례조사 연구

A gravity survey is a base of research earth gravity field determined, perception of the vertical motion, change of Geoid, sea-level changes, climate change etc. Recently, FG-5 was adopted in NGII. NGII has completed 4 points of absolute gravity survey and 1,400 points of relative gravity survey in 2009 to aim to observe 20 points of absolute gravity survey and 6,000 points of gravity control point by 2013. Using results of gravity survey, NGII will provide citizen with data for research about renewal of geoid model and geophysics. This study aims to go over examples of utilization of absolute gravimeter & method of utilization in korea.
