  • Patent number: 9696456
    Abstract: The present invention concerns a method of processing marine gravity data and a processing apparatus for the same. According to the present invention, the processing method comprises obtaining an initial free-air anomaly per profile from raw data; obtaining a filtered free-air anomaly by filtering high-frequency components from the initial free-air anomaly; shifting free-air anomaly by correcting the filtered free-air anomaly based on a reference free-air anomaly; and showing a per-profile free-air anomaly using the reference corrected free-air anomaly.

  • Patent number: 9637987
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a coring system and a determining method that can determine whether accurate coring was achieved. A coring system according to the present invention includes: a coring part with a core to be filled with an object to be cored; a driving unit controlling upward/downward movement of the coring part; a rope connecting the coring part with the driving unit; and a tensiometer measuring tension in the rope.

  • Publication number: 20160341846
    Abstract: Provided are ocean magnetic survey measurement method and system. The ocean magnetic survey measurement method includes a measuring operation for measuring an earth's magnetic field value using a magnetometer according to a heading angle of a probe, which is measured in clockwise direction on a basis of the true north, while the probe moves along a circular path based on a center point in an exploration target area with the magnetometer taken in tow, a data input operation for receiving, by a calculation unit, data for the heading angle of the probe and data for the earth's magnetic field value measured at the heading angle, a calculating operation for setting, by the calculation unit containing a calculation program therein, a magnetic disturbance value induced by the probe, which is included in the measured earth's magnetic field value, and calculating an actual earth's magnetic field value by subtracting the magnetic disturbance value from the measured earth's magnetic field value.
