one of the difficulties in using absolute altitudes is the separation between the mean open sealevel and geoid. theoretically, geoid is the base level in absolute altitudes, but practically, the mean open sealevel is used as a base level for absolute altitudes. the difference between these two levels is called as the seasurface topography. in this research, it is dealt the mean sea level modeli...

Abstract This paper studies the contribution of airborne gravity data to improvement gravimetric geoid modelling across mountainous area in Colorado, USA. First, was processed, filtered, and downward-continued. Then, three anomaly grids were prepared; first grid only from terrestrial data, second downward-continued third combined data. Gravimetric models with determined using least-squares modi...

[1] The satellite Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) provides data describing monthly changes in the geoid, which are closely related to changes in vertically integrated terrestrial water storage. Unlike conventional point or gridded hydrologic measurements, such as those from rain gauges, stream gauges, rain radars, and radiometric satellite images, GRACE data are sets of Stokes c...

Dispersion and deposition of aerosol particles over two square cylinders confined in a channel in laminar unsteady vortical flow were investigated numerically. Lattice Boltzmann method was used to calculate fluid characteristics and modify Euler method was employed as Lagrangian particle tracing procedure to obtain particle trajectories. Drag, Saffman lift, gravity, buoyancy and Brownian motion...

The geoid is the fundamental surface that defines the figure of the Earth. It is approximated by mean sealevel and undulates due to spatial variations in the Earth's gravity field. The use of the geoid in regional geophysics is illustrated for the North-West Shelf of Australia by removing long-wavelength geoid features, due predominantly to deep-Earth mass anomalies, in order to reveal near-sur...

The objective of this paper is to introduce and describe the concept of using airborne gravimetry by strapdown INS/DGPS to reference mapping products derived from Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (IFSAR) to the geoid. Calgary-based Intermap Technologies Ltd. is a digital mapping company that focuses on providing digital elevation models and ortho-rectified images using an interferometri...

During the 88th and 96th Conferences of the Working Committee of the Surveying Authorities of the States of the Federal Republic of Germany (AdV) in 1991 and 1995 the resolution was passed to introduce the European Terrestrial Reference System 1989 (ETRS89) with the universal transversals Mercator projection (UTM) as map projection of GRS80 Ellipsoid in Germany and Europe uniformly. The task of...
