Microcomputer-based analysis of aeromagnetic maps for structural mapping

Abstract

Aeromagnetic data at a scale of 1:50 000, derived from an area of about 600km2 located within the greenstone belt of western Kenya, are analysed using 2D,3D-Euler deconvolution and Fourier spectral techniques. Programs have been written in the Fortran 77 language and run on a 386SX PS/2 IBM microcomputer with random access memory of 4 megabytes, central processing unit (CPU) speed of 16KHz and 387 mathematical coprocessor.
