A brief note on the effects of floating standard deviation (non- derivative) and horizontal gradient (derivative) filters

Abstract

When processing gravity data, the filters are used in space and frequency environments. The filters allow more selectable parameter estimations than raw data about the structure being examined. Filtering in a broad sense means monitoring the data under the constraints we want. While the filters allow some information to become more noticeable, they allow some information to be lost or become less noticeable from data. In this case, the losses in the data make the interpretation difficult and can cause errors. Derivative and phase filters provide quantitative information about the variation of data in different directions. The display of the change results in a positive or negative manner proportional to derivative sensitivity and phase sharpness, and this may be observed in this data. In the structural boundary analysis, since the sudden changes in the derivative cause oscillations, the boundaries become questionable. Limiting the data neighborhoods with a window by controlling the deviation without using derivative and the filters that allow boundary analysis non-derivative by floating this limitation are used to illuminate the boundary relationships.
