A New Method for Leveling Airborne Gamma-ray Spectrometric Data

Data leveling utilizing baseline survey makes existing old data be smoothly compiled, and also keep characteristics of data, such as small high frequency anomaly information. The previously proposed leveling method may easily loose or damage the original characteristics of the data. This paper suggests a new leveling method. New method determines the leveling coefficients using regional field of the original data, which is composed by data on the grids point coincided with baseline survey grid, while existing method uses all grid data without any considerations. Results of new leveling method on test area shows that new method make two data sets compiled more smoothly and trends of data distribution expressed more clearly. And then, it also preserves high frequency information well.
