Euler deconvolution with a moving windowΒΆ

Euler deconvolution attempts to estimate the coordinates of simple (idealized) sources from the input potential field data. There is a strong assumption that the sources have simple geometries, like spheres, vertical pipes, vertical planes, etc. So it wouldn’t be much of a surprise if the solutions aren’t great when sources are complex.

Let’s test the Euler deconvolution using a moving window scheme, a very common approach used in all industry software. This is implemented in fatiando.gravmag.euler.EulerDeconvMW.
