5.1. Load data#

This is a subset of the BAS AGAP survey over Antarctica’s Gamburtsev Subglacial Mountains. The file is download and subset in the notebook AGAP_magnetic_survey, and the BAS processing steps are repeated in the notebook processing_AGAP_magnetic_survey.

5.5. Level lines to ties#

Now we will level only the lines, holding the ties constant. We will just use a trend degree of 0, which allows only a DC shift of the lines. We will save the levelled data to a new column mag_levelled_lines_trend0. If you don’t want to keep track on new columns, you can just use the same name as the data column.

data_df, inters = airbornegeo.line_levelling(
    data_df,
    inters,
    lines_to_level=data_df[data_df.tie == False].line.unique(),

    levelled_col="mag_levelled_lines_trend0",
    degree=0,

From the above profile, we can see line 77 has been shifted down to try and minimize the cross-over errors. The map, histogram and levelling convergence figures show we have reduced the cross-over errors, bringing the RMSE from ~43nT to ~24nT.

5.6. Level ties to lines#

We can also level the tie lines to the flight lines. We do this be supplying the lines_to_level parameter with the names of the tie lines. We will give this levelled data a new name mag_levelled_ties_trend0

We can repeat these steps, increasing the trend order if we need more levelling, and alternating between levelling lines or ties. The next notebook shows how to automatically perform multiple iterations of levelling.
