A software to spherical harmonic synthesis at irregular surfaces (isGrafLab)

We added a new software isGrafLab (Irregular Surface GRAvity Field LABoratory), which is a modified version of GrafLab. isGrafLab is capable to perform fast (it uses accelerated routines) and yet sufficiently accurate spherical harmonic synthesis on dense grids at irregular surfaces (e.g. the Earth surface). Any comments, criticism or queries will be appreciated. Feel free to write us. The emails can be found e.g. in the article or in the source code.

Spherical Harmonic Manipulator

We added a new software (Spherical Harmonic Manipulator) to make fast synthesis of spherical harmonics global models.
The software allows the synthesis of many functionals on grids or point-wise provided in geodetic or spherical (geocentric) coordinates up to an arbitrary degree.

The SW is able to provide the following outputs:
T – Anomalous potential
N – Geoid undulation
Dg – Gravity anomaly
First derivatives (lambda, theta, radial)
First derivatives (east, north, radial)
Second Derivatives (All the combinations)
Third radial derivate of T

Any comments are welcomed.

Formatting of the references

Thank’s Valeria to the preliminary list on gravity inversion in flatland- I knwo you are still working at it. We shall decide on the formatting of the references and whether the links to the papers shall be included- Adding the links is quite some work, so I am not sure if everybody is willing to do it.
Suggestions welcome!
