Abstract
FTG Gravity data technology measures 5 components of the Gravity Tensor field. This presents a challenge for interpretation projects. Traditional methods concentrate mainly on the vertical component, Tzz, as it best characterizes geological structure and stratigraphy with respect to ease of data interpretation. However, this often leads to under usage of the horizontal component data and their ability to map linear geological structures or edges of target geology. This paper presents a procedure for working with the horizontal component data separate to Tzz and to extract their geological significance.
