Approximation of the anomalous gravitational field of local regions by an ensemble of mass points
Abstract
The algorithm of a convenient method of selecting a set of mass points for approximating gravitational anomaly field of a local region is outlined. The algorithm is particularly well suited for calculating the deflection of the plumb line and for repeated calculations (in the same region) both at the earth's surface and in space.
