Abstract/Notes Terrain corrections for gravimetric measurements have been studied in terms of accuracy requirements and automated computations. Geodetic and geophysical applications in western Canada have been considered specifically because of complications arising from the rugged topography. Comparing the computation methods of Nagy and Mathisen in relation to the theoretical results, the former is shown to be more reliable with simulated accidented topography. Other approaches are also briefly discussed and general recommendations are made for an optimal technique to compute gravimetric terrain corrections in western Canada.
