Shipborne gravity can be used to refine altimeter-derived gravity whose accuracy is low in shallow waters and areas with complex submarine topography. As altimeter-derived gravity only within a small radius around the shipborne data can be corrected by traditional methods, a new method based on multi-layer perceptron (MLP) neural network is proposed to refine the altimeter-derived gravity. Input variables of MLP include the positional information at observation points and geophysical information (from our own South China Sea gravity anomaly model (SCSGA) V1.0 and bathymetry model ETOPO1) at grid points around observation points. Output variables of MLP are the refined residual gravity anomalies at observation points. Training shipborne data are classified into four cases to train four MLP models, which are used to predict the refined gravity anomaly model SCSGA V1.1. Then all of the training shipborne data are used for training an MLP model to predict the refined gravity anomaly model SCSGA V1.2. Assessed by testing shipborne data, the accuracy of SCSGA V1.2 is 0.14 mGal higher than that of SCSGA V1.0, and similar to that of SCSGA V1.1. Compared with the original gravity anomaly model (SCSGA V1.0), the accuracy of the refined gravity anomaly model (SCSGA V1.2) by MLP is improved by 4.4% in areas where the training data are concentrated, and also improved by 2.2% in other areas. Therefore, the method of MLP can be used to refine the altimeter-derived gravity model by shipborne gravity, overcoming the problem of limited correction radius for traditional methods.
