Shot point maps are provided as PDF files (open directory listing). Take screenshots from PDF viewer and convert to JPG or other image format, as needed. Remember to open the PDF file separately in Adobe Acrobat Reader, which provide a clear rendering of fonts and lines (unlike some PDF viewers that are browser embedded).

Converting the counter reading to milliGals


Excerpt from p.1-9 of G-936 Instruction Manual:

  If the counter reading is 2654.32, look at the calibration table for your meter. Remember that each meter has its own unique table.

Secondary reference point at Harbor Office, Longyearbyen


The old reference points at Longyearbyen Airport have been rendered unusable due to building reconstruction work in 2007. So in 2008 we established our own "secondary" reference points, one near the Harbor Office at Bykaia, and the other near Bringkaia, by taking the approximate difference between that old point, and the new secondary points. Several difference readings have been performed in order to establish an accurate difference, see table below.

We believe measurements made after 2005 are more accurate. Thus, we estimate that difference between old reference point P at Longyearbyen Airport, and new secondary reference point at Harbor Office is (2.11 + 2.09 + 2.14 + 2.13)/4 = 2.118 counts, which must be converted to milliGals using land gravity meter calibration table, see above).
