The use of GPS for the estimation of orthometric heights in a given region, with the help of existing levelling data requires the determination of a local geoid and the bias between the local levelling and the one implicitly defined when... more
The Global Positioning System (GPS) satellite-based technology has been utilized extensively, in the last few years, for a wide range of Geomatics and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) applications within Makkah metropolitan area. One... more

In this study, we have conducted an investigation on the impact of the coordinates’ transformation on local variations of geometric geoid. The study area is limited by 1°43′12″ to 4°00′37″ East and 13°01′57″ to 14°31′20″ North in the... more
Determination of the ellipsoidal height by Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) is becoming better known and used for purposes of leveling with the aid of geoid models. However, the disadvantage of this method is the quality of the... more
Due to current situation in Kosova with the national geoid, which is still under development, utilization of global EGM's is more than necessary. In this research, multiband raster datasets with 1km spatial resolution of existing EGM... more
The whole process of the approximation of the anomalous gravity potential is reviewed from the point of view of available geodetic data and their pri- mary combination to define a mathematical standard model, i.e. a suitable boundary... more
Abstract. Global gravity models are being developed according to new data sets available from satellite gravity missions and terrestrial/marine gravity data which are provided by different countries. Some countries do not provide all... more
Geoid data are more sensitive to density distributions deep within the Earth, thus the data are useful for studying the internal processes of the Earth leading to formation of geological structures. In this paper, we present much improved... more
Urban planning and hydraulic risk management are a worldwide necessity which is best achieved when natural and artificial elements located closely to watercourses are known in great detail. A geodatabase is a practical tool to store and... more
Nowadays, Global Geopotential Models (GGMs) can be used as a reference to develop more detailed regional/local geoids, or they can be used to provide geoid heights on their own. Since 2000, several GGMs have been released, and they are... more
This paper presents the first and second order gravimetric relative network planning for the territory of the Republic of Albania, as well as the calculation of free-air anomalies, Bouguer anomalies, and Bouguer gravity. The planning of... more
ABSTRACT New additional Global Geopotential Models [GGMs] have now been released into the public domain, those including data from the CHAMP, GREACE and GOCE dedicated satellite gravimetric mission. Those satellite tracking data have... more
We compile a new geoid model at the computation area of New Zealand and its continental shelf using the method developed at the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) in Stockholm. This method utilizes the least-squares modification of the... more
The selection of a global geopotential model (GGM) for modeling the long-wavelength for geoid computation is imperative not only because of the plethora of GGMs available but more importantly because it influences the accuracy of a geoid... more
An attempt has been made to evaluate the geoid-quasigeoid separation term over Pakistan by using solutions of terms involving first and second order terrain heights. The first term, involving the Bouguer anomaly, has a significant value... more
The conversion of geometric as well as ellipsoidal heights from GNSS observations to practical heights for engineering constructions has necessitated the determination of the local geoid model of areas. Benin City is a developing area... more
