Abstract
It is shown how a series of Fourier transforms can be used to calculate the magnetic or gravitational anomaly caused by an uneven, non-uniform layer of material. Modern methods for finding Fourier transforms numerically are very fast and make this approach attractive in situations where large quantities of observations are available.
