HAWAIIAN GRAVITY SURVEY

Abstract

Computations and results are given for the gravity survey accomplished by the 1381st Geodetic Survey Squadron (Missile) in support of the Hawaiian HIRAN Project, AF 61-2. The gravity work includes base station surveys and observations along level lines. The base station to which all final data is referred is the MATS terminal base station located at Hickam AFB, Hawaii. To obtain gravity values referred to the first order pendulum station in the Bishop Museum, subtract 0.9 mgals from the values contained in this report.
