Direct regional quasi-geoid determination using EGM2008 and DEM: A case study for Mainland China and its vicinity areas

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2015
Earth's gravity model (EGM) helps people better determine the figure of Earth, which is generally represented by a global geoid. For a considerable amount of practical applications, people use quasi-geoid to approximate the geoid, thus the quasi-geoid is

Some mathematical assumptions for accurate transformation parameters between WGS84 and Nord Sahara geodetic systems

open access: yesJournal of Geodetic Science, 2023
The transformation of coordinates between different geodetic datums has been a common practice within the geospatial profession. Relating different geodetic datums mostly involves the use of conformal transformation techniques, which could produce ...

A new methodology to manage Italian geodetic datums of the cadastral systems and of the historic maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Cadastral maps represent the result of the highest scale survey of any region. They are not topographic maps. Their goal is to show the property system of the mapped area, so any topographic element that is important for this aspect is shown while others

The sand grain and the butterfly. Instability in geodesy and geophysics

open access: yesAnnals of Geophysics, 1997
The problems of convergence of series in celestial mechanics and of certain series in geodesy (Molodensky's series and spherical harmonics) show similar features, involving a curious instability. This is imaginatively expressed as the « butterfly effect»

Nonlinear force-free models for the solar corona I. Two active regions with very different structure [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
With the development of new instrumentation providing measurements of solar photospheric vector magnetic fields, we need to develop our understanding of the effects of current density on coronal magnetic field configurations.

On the transformation of the coordinates of points from the SK-42 system to WGS-84

open access: yesГеофизический журнал, 2019
The significant and effective use of global positioning satellite systems for solution of important theoretical and applied problems of Earth sciences means the preserving of the possibility to use a huge quantity of geodetic, cartographic, gravimetric ...

GEOID-QUASIGEOID CORRECTION IN FORMULATION OF THE FUNDAMENTAL FORMULA OF PHYSICAL GEODESY [PDF]

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Cartografia, 2003
To formulate the fundamental formula of physical geodesy at the physical surface of the Earth, the gravity anomalies are used instead of the gravity disturbances, because the geodetic heights above the geocentric reference ellipsoid are not usually ...

An analysis of methods for gravity determination and their utilization for the calculation of geopotential numbers in the Slovak national levelling network

open access: yesContributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2016
The vertical reference system in the Slovak Republic is realized by the National Levelling Network (NLN). The normal heights according to Molodensky have been introduced as reference heights in the NLN in 1957.

A Brief Overview to Theory of Heights

open access: yesCommunications, 2002
In various parts of the world many kinds of height systems have been formulated and practically used in the past. Nowadays, orthometric heights and normal heights are widely used.

Causal Relationships between Eruptive Prominences and Coronal Mass Ejections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
A close association between eruptive prominences and CMEs, both slow and fast CMEs, was reported in many studies. Sometimes it is possible to follow the material motion starting from the prominence (filament) activation to the CME in the high corona ...
