Earth's gravity model(EGM) helps people better determine the figure of Earth, which is generally represented by a global geoid. For a considerable amount of practical applications, people use quasi-geoid to approxi...
Developing the Nabucco engineering infrastructure was the most challenging task imaginable and required state-of-the-art technologies.For this purpose,a NabuccoGlobal Positioning System(GPS)Network was established.It...
This paper first develops the approaches to determine the geopotential of the local mean sea level,and then investigates the offset of the 1985 vertical datum surface defined by the mean sea level of Yellow Sea at the...
The main objective of this study is to improve the geoid by GPS/leveling data in Egypt.Comparisons of the gravimetric geoid with GPS/leveling data have been performed.On the basis of a gravimetric geoid fitted to GPS/...
