La Base nationale de données gravimétriques(BNDG) a été assemblée au cours des 30 dernières années dans le cadre du Programme gravimétrique national et dans le but de répondre aux besoins géoscientifiques nationaux et internationaux. Elle renferme de l'information concernant les réseaux de normalisation de la gravimétrie au Canada et à l'étranger, la cartographie gravimétrique au Canada, les paramètres instrumentaux, les études du mouvement de la croûte terrestre et, sous forme numérique, les élévations du terrain. 1, record 1, French, - Base%20nationale%20de%20donn%C3%A9es%20gravim%C3%A9triques

The more localized departures in the Earth's field from the values that would be predicted if the field were to originate with a single magnet oriented along the magnetic axis. These have maximums as great as 10,000 gammas, which is about a third the total intensity at the equator, and extend over areas as large as a million square miles. 1, record 5, English, - regional%20anomaly

L'anomalie de Bouguer constitue le document de base d’un relevé gravimétrique. Si le sous-sol était constitué de couches homogènes horizontales, aucune anomalie de Bouguer ne serait observée. Certains contrastes de densité non horizontaux sont situés à une trop grande profondeur pour relever du domaine de la géophysique appliquée. Leurs effets(anomalie régionale) doivent être éliminés pour mettre en évidence les effets localisés(anomalie résiduelle) dus à des contrastes de densité plus superficiels. 1, record 5, French, - anomalie%20r%C3%A9gionale
