Abstract
The project involves the monitoring of the sub-surface of the geo-thermal drilling site at Staufen, Germany, using the principle of gravimetry. This rate could be visualised on a monthly basis whether the land is rising, due to fluid injection,or if its falling, due to fluid removal. All observations points are benchmarks of known heights above sea level and the gravity measurements are corrected for pressure and free air gradient.
