Abstract: | The National Gravity Data Base has been developed over the past 15 years in response to national and international geoscience
requirements. The data base contains information pertaining to gravity standardization networks in Canada and abroad, gravity
anomaly mapping in Canada, instrumental parameters, digital terrain and crustal motion. Flexible data management capability
and minimal software maintenance costs result from extensive use of the System 2000 DBMS package. Interfaced with the data
base are several applications software systems which perform various reduction, editing, adjustment, updating, retrieval and
display operations.
