Abstract

There have been two recent and useful methods to determine the positions and the depth to the magnetic sources. They are the deconvolution Euler and the analytic signal. The Euler method uses the gradients of the total magnetic field, expressed in Cartesian coordinates and these gradients are related to different magnetic sources by a function termed the structural index N. The advantage of this method is that it is not constrained by any preconceived geological ideas. In this research, the author constructed a program to interpret the magnetic data by using the Euler method and applied it to interpret the magnetic anomalies in the South Viet Nam.
