Density mapping from gravity data using the Walsh transform

One of the main purposes of geophysical mapping is the identification of units that can be related to known geology. On a regional scale, aeromagnetic and gravity maps are the most useful tools presently available, although other techniques such as conductivity mapping (Palacky, 1986) or remote sensing (Watson, 1985) are very helpful in locating lithologic boundaries. Interpretation now makes extensive use of enhanced maps: susceptibility maps …
