Thanks for the reply.  I am not sure what is different with the three zone 
gridding and just gridding with the small size for all data?  In both cases you 
are creating the grid in the low data density zone with high density cell 
sizes?  Does you attached image (grid) looked much different than you initial 
attempt (say at 25 m grid cell size)?
I am sure that if you merge the 3 zoned grids into one grid that you would have 
some issues (a 1VD of the grid will show all of the edge effects).  But if you 
use grid knit and have overlapping areas that should be eliminated as you 
alluded to in your email.   If you go to voxi to model it, it won’t matter so 
much if you use the stations for data and not the grid since it will be the 
cell size that controls the data (if you chose 1 data point per cell size).
Looks like a nice data set, should be fun to interpret.
Glad to see you are still having fun in geophysics.  Good hunting and discovery.
Regards
Dick

Hi Dick

Thanks for your response, I did grid this with three zones and use the same 
color scheme as you suggested and it looks really good accept when you are 
interested in things near the boundaries of the zones.  Riann Mouton suggested 
I try taking this a step further and re-grid/interpolate the coarser grid to 
the cell size of the smaller grid and window out the zone covered by the finer 
grid in the interpolated version of the coarser grid and then repeat the 
process till all 3 zones are in the smaller cell size.  So the two coarser 
grids look like a donuts where the central part with the closer spacing is 
dummied. This worked very well since I had 25m, 50m and 100m cell sizes in the 
3 zones.  After regriding all 3 to 25m and windowing out the central parts of 
the two coarser grids you can try to connect the three grids using 
Grid=>Utilities=>Grid Mosaic from Grid files.

 I am still getting some edge effects at the boudaries of the grids so you 
probably need a row or two of cells at the boundaries so you can more smoothly 
interpolate between them.

One method is to create three grids, central, 2nd and 3rd  areas.  You can grid 
the central area with the optimum grid cell spacing, go to the next zone and 
use the optimum cell spacing for that (and using that spacing for the high 
density core stations too) and then do the same for the out zone.  You have 
three grids, three different grid cell size and you can drape them atop one 
another using the same color scheme.  That way you maintain best resolution 
within a zone.  But it always depends on the anomaly character and do the 
anomalies bleed from the higher density into lower density zones (in which case 
this does not work as well).

Subject: [geonet] Gridding Gravity data

Hi

I have a question about gridding gravity data in oasis montaj.  What gridding 
settings are best for a survey with variable spacing like the image below?  The 
spacing ranges from 200m to 800m depending on distance from AOI.  I can get 
good results with default minimum curvature with 40m cell size in the high 
density part, but don't get very good interpolations where the spacing 
increases.  Is there a way of doing a more regional grid with 200m cells then 
stitching it to the 40m grid?  Any suggestions on the gridding settings here?

Regards,
Doug
