A simple Python Package for processing and interpreting gravity and magnetic data in Geophysics.

The idea is to use mostly standard Python libraries like numpy and scipy for building everything, or at least most of it. We don't focus too much on plotting, but if we need to, we usually rely on the standard matplolib library.

Sticking to these standard libraries makes things easier when it comes to installing and updating the code.

We might use gravmag for teaching classes, courses, and doing research. The aim is to create a foundation that can be possibly adapted to handle big data and super tricky problems.

By 'reinventing the wheel,' we're basically learning how to create new stuff from scratch.

All references cited in the code and examples are shown in the file references.md.

The recomendation here is using the Makefile to install, test and also uninstall the gravmag. Ubuntu users may execute the steps below:

1. Create a copy of the present repository at your computer.
2. Open the terminal in the root directory gravmag at your computer and execute the command make install.
3. Also at the root directory gravmag, execute make test in terminal to test the code. The command make report creates the file index.html at gravmag/gravmag/tests/htmlcov. Open this file in your preferred browser to see a report of the tests.
4. To uninstall gravmag, execute the command make uninstall in the root directory gravmag.
