Upward continuation is a method used inoil exploration andgeophysics to estimate the values of agravitational ormagnetic field by using measurements at a lower elevation and extrapolating upward, assumingcontinuity. This technique is commonly used to merge different measurements to a common level so as to reduce scatter and allow for easier analysis.
