Seamounts are previously approximated as an axisymmetric Gaussian shape, and the vertical gravity gradient(VGG) anomalies combined with ship-track bathymetry data are used to evaluate seamount morphology. However, there are significant challenges in describing the complex morphology of seamounts. Therefore, we classify seamounts into two distinct types: conical and elliptical conical shapes, which can be determined by three and five parameters, respectively. We perform a grid search on seamount parameters, obtaining VGG anomalies corresponding to each parameter through forward calculation. The forward VGG anomalies are compared with the observed VGG anomalies, and the minimal root mean square(RMS) error between them is used as a search criterion for estimating. We validate the effectiveness of grid search algorithm through numerical simulations, and apply it to practical examples. The estimation results are compared with multi-beam bathymetry data, the RMS errors ranging from 150 m to 640 m, and the fitting of VGG anomalies is within 8 Eötvös.
