Neighbouring countries often have national geoids that do not fit to each other, typically
showing a discontinuity along the border. Among other effects, this discontinuity is mainly …

The satellite gravity field mission GOCE will deliver data and products such as orbit tracking
data, observations of the second order derivatives of the gravitational potential and global …

It is the purpose of this thesis to investigate different regional geoid determination methods
with respect to their feasibility for use with a future GOCE satellite-only Earth Gravity Model …

During the last two decades theincreased need for refined geoid models has been driven by
thedemands of users of GPS, who nowadays must transformGPS-derived geodetic heights …

A series of European geoid and quasigeoid models was computed at Institut für
Erdmessung (IfE) with support of the International Association of Geodesy (IAG), presently in …

Regional geoid models are based on the combination of satellite-only gravity field
information and terrestrial data. Satellite information is conveniently provided in terms of …

A new geoid computed with high-resolution for Italy, is presented in this paper. The
computation of this gravimetric geoid is based on the most recent geopotential model …

In the Stokes-Helmert method deployed at UNB, the geoid is determined in two steps, with
different types of data used in each step. The first step consists of selecting a higher-degree …

The aim of this paper is to show a present state-of-the-art precise gravimetric geoid
determination using the UNB Stokes-Helmert's technique in a simple schematic way. A …

Airborne gravimetry is an important method for measuring gravity over large unsurveyed
areas. This technology has been widely applied in Canada, Antarctica and Greenland to …
