This paper is concerned with the numerical solutions of 3D Cauchy problems of elliptic differential operators in the cylindrical domain. We assume that the measurements are only available on the outer boundary while the interior boundary is inaccessible and the solution should be obtained from the measurements from the outer layer. The proposed discretization approach uses the local weak equations and radial basis functions. Since the Cauchy problem is known to be ill-posed, the Thikhonov regularization strategy is employed to solve effectively the discrete ill-posed resultant linear system of equations. Numerical results of a different kind of test problems reveal that the method is very effective.
