✦ Synopsis

A program for computation of the gravity and magnetic anomalies associated with two-dimensional structures has been adapted for use in an interactive mode using a storage-screen CRT linked to a remote computer via standard telephone lines. This new program aids the user in developing a structural model that satisfies both magnetic and gravity observations. Examples are included to demonstrate the increased efficiency of interpretation using this low-cost graphics approach and to illustrate the detail of the model resulting from the compromise necessary to satisfy both potential-field data sets.
