Summary:A method and system for synchronizing geophysical survey data is provided. Detection of geophysically significant subsurface anomalies potentially associated with ore bodies or hydrocarbon deposits can be made by vehicle mounted surface or airborne regional gravitational studies. Recorded geophysical survey data is processed to synchronize data collected by various sensors. Data from the various sensors is synchronized based on position coordinates corresponding to locations where the data was collected. In this manner, at one specific location on Earth, the electromagnetic reading, magnetometer reading, gravimeter reading, and altimeter reading can all be associated together so that many characteristics of the specific location can be identified.
