The Effect of Density Data in Gravity Interpretation at Endut Mountain in Jawa Barat Province

We have explored the effect of gravity density data at Endut Mountain area using conventional gravity method[1]. The measurement showed the gravity density data varies to the position and elevation on the surface. The data are set to be 246, 128, and 64 data with respect to station interval 250 m, 500 m, and 1000 m, respectively. We have compared three density of data to show the trend of gravity anomaly. Analysis data revealed that the trend of low gravity anomaly are encountered at the northern part of the study area. Using detailed analysis of density data of 270 exhibits the low of gravity anomaly at the North-West and high anomaly at the South-West. The interpretation data from high density to low density also showed the same trend of gravity anomaly[2]. This means that the low density data can be used to interpretation gravity anomaly if the coverage measurement relatively distributed.
