Abstract The principal loss mechanism for superconducting RF cavities in normal operation is Ohmic heating due to the microwave surface resistance in the superconducting surface. The typical method for calculating this field-dependent surface resistance R_{s}(H) from RF measurements of quality factor Q₀ implicitly returns a weighted average of R_{s} over the surface as a function of peak surface magnetic field H, not the true value of R_{s} as a function of the local magnitude of H. In this work we present a computational method to convert a measured Q₀ vs. H_{peak} to a more accurate R_{s} vs. H_{local}, given knowledge about cavity geometry and field distribution.
