A comparison of the instruments is made as to: (1) gravity intervals over a range of five gals, and (2) the drift characteristics and loop closures. The relative accuracy of observation with these gravimeters is ±0.3 mgal; and, therefore, when calibrated on an absolute basis a similar accuracy of observed gravity should be possible.Read More
