Abstract;In the last years the superconducting gravimeters of the Bundesamt fuer Kartographie und Geodaesie(BKG) have been calibrated several times by comparison with absolute gravity measurements. Averaging over all measuring campaigns, stable results with errors in the order of 1nm s-2/V are reached. Three of the instruments were also calibrated by the platform method. The internal accuracy of this method is higher by about one order of magnitude. However, are discrepancies between the results of the two different calibration methods, the origin of which is still not clear. (author abst.)
