==Horizontal layers==
Horizontal layers have no anomalous gravity response. Thus, it is impossible to determine the subsurface density distribution if there are no lateral changes. Layer-cake geology yields no anomalous gravity signal. A bed is considered infinite and horizontal if it is about five times wider in all directions than it is thick, with no dip.
