Local orthometric height based on a combination of GPS-derived ellipsoidal height and geoid model: A review paper [PDF]
The use of orthometric height in geodetic applications provides elevations on the physical topographic surface of the earth rather than ellipsoidal heights that are not in conformity with the physical topography. Global positioning system (GPS)/levelling

Islands and the mainland are separated by seas, and the distances between them might be so long that the height on the mainland cannot be exactly translated to the islands, resulting in different height systems on the mainland and the islands.

Computation of the ellipsoidal height related to the Bessel ellipsoid [PDF]
Príspevok sa zaoberá určením elipsoidických výšok identických bodov nad Besselovym elipsoidom s použitím navrhovanej Molodenského formuly v prípade, že nie je k dispozícii kvázigeoid model vztiahnutý na Besselov elipsoid.

Direct conversion of latitude and height from one ellipsoid to another [PDF]
AbstractI suggest a method for converting geodetic height and latitude from one oblate ellipsoid of revolution to another having the same center and symmetry axis. Unlike other approaches, the method here does not obtain height and latitude from Earth-centered, Earth-fixed (ECEF) Cartesian coordinates; this feature allows height conversion with high ...

Height is an important component in the determination of the position of a point. The study aimed at performing a comparative analysis of change between ellipsoidal height differences and the equivalent orthometric height difference of points. A hi-target Differential Global Positioning System (DGPS) was used to acquire GPS data with an occupation ...

Relative performance of AUSGeoid09 in mountainous terrain [PDF]
The Australian Height Datum (AHD) is the national vertical datum for Australia, and AUSGeoid09 is the latest quasigeoid model used to compute (normalorthometric) AHD heights from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) derived ellipsoidal heights ...

Gravity for Geodetic Purpose: Geoid-Ellipsoid Separation and Orthometric Height System
Gravity plays very crucial role in geodetic issues as gravity field determines the shape of the earth. This paper reviews – beginning from defining the gravity, various applications of gravity in geodesy and in other fields, nature of gravity field of our terrain, instruments of gravity measurement, and techniques of gravity survey.

Three-dimensional slope stability analysis based on irregular ellipsoid sliding surface [PDF]
The determination of the critical sliding surface is a crucial aspect of slope stability analysis. In reality, the environment in which slopes are located is often very complex, and the sliding surfaces have different shapes.
