“…Based on the above considerations and the experience gained in the previous RGCs [4,5], it was decided that the best performing relative gravimeters should be used, for their advantages in calibration and digital data management. Nine selected Scintrex CG and ZLS BURRIS gravimeters were invited to participate.…”

The goal of maintaining an accurate gravity network at the BIPM headquarters is twofold: firstly to support the International Comparison of Absolute Gravimeters (ICAG), and secondly to support the BIPM watt balance (WB) project, which aims at determining the Planck constant h or realizing a future new definition of the kilogram based on a fixed value of h. In addition the absolute gravity measurements, Relative Gravity Campaign (RGC) is organized as part of each ICAG.The BIPM gravity network is characterized by its small size, indoor laboratory conditions, three-dimensional structure, and large number of parallel absolute gravity determinations. Over the last 3 decades, repeated precise horizontal and vertical ties have been measured using relative and absolute gravimeters, and precision leveling has been undertaken regularly to monitor the deformation of the terrain. The ICAG is held every 4 years; the 8th ICAG took place in mid-2009 and for the first time, it was organized as a metrological key comparison as defined by the CIPM MRA. Its results will such constitute a precise and consistent gravity

RésuméLe projet « balance du watt » propose de relier la définition du kilogramme à la constante de Planck. La pesée de la masse impliquée nécessite une détermination de l'accélération de la pesanteur g avec une exactitude meilleure que 10 −8 . Les travaux résumés dans cet article visent à réaliser cette détermination à l'aide d'un gravimètre atomique et d'un site gravimétrique dédié. MOTS CLÉS: GRAVIMÉTRIE, CARTOGRAPHIE GRAVIMÉTRIQUE, MODÉLISATION GRAVIMÉTRIQUE, INTERFÉROMÉTRIE ATOMIQUE, BALANCE DU WATT. AbstractThe "watt balance" project aims at linking the kilogram definition to the Planck constant. The weighing of the mass involved requires a determination of the acceleration g with an uncertainty better than 10 −8 . This work aims at determining g with an atomic gravimeter and a dedicated gravimetric site.
