Height determination using GPS data, local geoid and global geopotential models [PDF]
Orthometric heights are normally derived using the spirit levelling. This requires the spirit level equipment to be set up from point 10 point along a levelling line which is a time consuming and tedious task.

Abstract De‐aliasing products are used in the estimation process of satellite‐based gravity field computation to reduce errors from high‐frequency mass variations that alias into monthly gravity fields. The latest official product is AOD1B RL07 and describes non‐tidal atmosphere and oceanic mass variations at 3‐hourly resolution.

Analysis of altimetry over inland seas [PDF]
Satellite-based altimetric data taken by GEOS-3 and SEASAT over the Black Sea and Caspian Sea are analyzed and a least squares collocation technique is used to predict the geoid undulation on a .25-degree by .25-degree grid and to transform these geoid ...
