The so called method of linear analytical representations elaborated by V.N.Strakhov seems to be an effective tool for
finding the anomalous field elements in local, regional and global cases. Suppose the "ideal" Earth is the interior of the
ellipsoid with the parameters a,b,c. Then the "real" Earth can be treated as a domain restricted by piecewise continuous
surface S which slightly deviates from this ellipsoid and contains the ideal Earth. Approximate values of a function G(x)
which is harmonic outside S are assumed to be given in a set of points (arbitrary) on the surface S. These values can be
represented by the sum of simple and double layers distributed on the ellipsoid. The densities of these layers (singular
sources) are to be determined. In the local case we can take as the support of simple and double layers an infinite plane,
i.e. XOY.
The determination of densities (singular sources) reduces to solving a linear algebraic equation system with the
approximately given right-hand side. For solving such systems there was used the new method of finding stable approximate
solutions of linear algebraic equation systems with the approximately given right-hand side. The computer technologies
designed by the author of this contribution have been tested on some models and turn out to be effective.
