Tides have largest impact on gravity measurements compared to all other environmental effects. They are a direct result of the gravitational forces of the planetary bodies, mainly the Moon and the Sun. The magnitude of tidal effects depends on the relative position of planetary bodies around the Earth and can be computed from the astronomical ephemeris. In this paper, LTide software is presented, a lightweight application for computation of the tidal gravity acceleration effects according to…
