Abstract

AbstractThe gravimetric forward method is crucial in geophysical applications for a gravimetric interpretation of the Earth's inner structure. In this study, we present the gravimetric forward modelling open‐source software that incorporates a graphical user interface. This software allows data preparation, manipulation and result interpretation both spatially and spectrally. For spatial domain modelling, it uses prism and tesseroid elements, whereas in the spectral domain, it extends Parker's formulas within specified boundaries. The software's utility is demonstrated through synthetic models and real‐world applications, including calculating corrections for topography, sediments and consolidated crust using ETOPO1 and CRUST1.0 models. Performance comparisons show that Parker's method delivers computation speed superior to that of the prism, tesseroid and Terrain gravity forward (TGF) software, with variances ranging within ±12 mGal for and ±0.3 E for across different geological scenarios.
