Abstract

This paper considers the upward continuation of single profiles of vertical magnetic data taken across models where all the information is contained in a single profile. The single profile upward continuation integral is: B(x ⃗)=((z_2-z_1))/π ∫_(-∞)^∞▒(B_z (x ⃗^')□(dx^'))/(|x ⃗-x ⃗^'|) This upward continuation method is applied to such models as the infinite line current and the infinite horizontal cylindrical shell. When applied to these models, the method works quite well. Some error results from information lost because the data profiles are not infinitely long. Also the method does not work well if the separation between the data profile and the upward continued profile is too small.
