Sistem GPS ( Global Positioning System ) sudah banyak diaplikasikan, terutama yang terkait dengan aplikasi-aplikasi menuntut informasi tentang posisi. Geoid merupakan permukaan dasar geodesi fisik didefinisikan sebagai ekipotensial berhimpit tinggi laut rata-rata. juga referensi dipakai dalam penentuan orthometrik. Studi kasus diambil pada penelitian ini mencakup seluruh wilayah Pulau Bali. Pen...

The gravity disturbance vector is one of the major error sources in high-precision and long-term inertial navigation applications. Specific to the inertial navigation systems (INSs) with high-order horizontal damping networks, analyses of the error propagation show that the gravity-induced errors exist almost exclusively in the horizontal channels and are mostly caused by deflections of the ver...

The new EGM2008 global gravity field model is evaluated by comparisons of geoid heights computed from the model with those available at GPS levelling stations in various regions and by computing sea surface topography solutions from the difference between the mean sea surface and the geoid from this model. In order to identify how good the model performs the same tests also are performed for ot...

Gravity-based heights require gravity values at levelled benchmarks (BMs), which sometimes have to be predicted from surrounding observations. We use EGM2008 and the Australian National Gravity Database (ANGD) as examples of model and terrestrial observed data respectively to predict gravity at Australian national levelling network (ANLN) BMs. The aim is to quantify errors that may propagate in...

In this paper we present the concepts and realization of the shallow-layer Shen geoid determination method, which is quite different from the classical geoid modeling methods (Stokes’ method, Molodenskiĭ’s method, etc.), for determining the global or regional geoids. This method takes full advantage of the precise Earth gravity field model EGM2008, digital topographic model DTM2006.0 and global...

The NZGeoid09 gravimetric quasigeoid model of New Zealand was computed through FFT-based 11 Stokesian integration with a deterministically modified kernel and an iterative computation approach 12 that accounts for offsets among New Zealand’s 13 different local vertical datums (LVDs). NZGeoid09 is 13 an improvement over the previous NZGeoid05 due to use of the EGM2008 and DNSC08GRA models, 14 an...

This study demonstrates that in mountainous areas the use of residual terrain model (RTM) data significantly improves the accuracy of vertical deflections obtained from high-degree spherical harmonic synthesis. The new Earth gravitational model EGM2008 is used to compute vertical deflections up to a spherical harmonic degree of 2160. RTM data can be constructed as difference between high-resolu...
