Goal-seismic computer programs in BASIC: Part I; Store, plot, and edit array data

Processing of geophysical data taken with the U.S. Geological Survey's coal-seismic system is done with a desk-top, stand-alone computer. Programs for this computer are written in an extended BASIC language specially augmented for acceptance by the Tektronix 4051 Graphic System. This report presents five computer programs used to store, plot, and edit array data for the line, cross, and triangle arrays commonly employed in our coal-seismic investigations. * Use of brand names in this report is for descriptive purposes only and does not constitute endorsement by the U.S. Geological Survey.

First-approximation reduction of gravity data with the aid of a programmable pocket calculator

The time required to make first-approximation reductions of gravity data in the field or field office can be markedly reduced with the aid of a programmable pocket calculator. Included in this report are programs (supplemented with operation instructions keyed to sample problems) to compute plane surveying data, establish base stations, remove linear time variations, calculate the simple-Bouguer reduction, and determine terrain correction out to zone H on the standard Hammer chart.
