Lunar Laser Ranging Contributions to Relativity and Geodesy [PDF]
Astrophysics and Space Science Library, 2008 Lunar laser ranging (LLR) is used to conduct high-precision measurements of ranges between an observatory on Earth and a laser retro-reflector on the lunar surface. Over the years, LLR has benefited from a number of improvements both in observing technology and data modeling, which led to the current accuracy of post-fit residuals of ~2 cm.

A rotational ellipsoid model for solid Earth tide with high precision [PDF]
Scientific ReportsSolid Earth tide represents the response of solid Earth to the lunar (solar) gravitational force. The yielding solid Earth due to the force has been thought to be a prolate ellipsoid since the time of Lord Kelvin, yet the ellipsoid’s geometry such as ...

Open spatial data for the exploration of territories and digital services for accessing them
Космические аппараты и технологии, 2023 «Open Data» concept is presented considering its application for wide public access to spatial data. It is shown that some principles of the «Open Data» may not be applicable to spatial data due to their peculiarities.
