On the Consistency between a Classical Definition of the Geoid-to-Quasigeoid Separation and Helmert Orthometric Heights [PDF]
It is acknowledged that a classical definition of the geoid-to-quasigeoid separation as a function of the simple planar Bouguer gravity anomaly is compatible with Helmert’s definition of orthometric heights.

Discussion on the orthometric height realization
In the theory of the orthometric height, the mean value of gravity along the plumbline between the geoid and the earth's surface is defined as the integral mean. To determine the mean gravity from the gravity observations realized at the physical surface

On the geoid and orthometric height vs. quasigeoid and normal height [PDF]
The geoid, but not the quasigeoid, is an equipotential surface in the Earth’s gravity field that can serve both as a geodetic datum and a reference surface in geophysics. It is also a natural zero-level surface, as it agrees with the undisturbed mean sea

Modeling GPS-Derived Orthometric Heights for a Small and Dense Network
The Global Positioning System (GPS) relative carrier phase observations would provide a powerful and fast tool for obtaining an accurate relative three dimensional positioning of a point on the earth.

ACCURACY ASSESSMENT OF DIFFERENT POLYNOMIAL GEOID MODELS IN ORTHOMETRIC HEIGHT DETERMINATION FOR AKURE, NIGERIA [PDF]
Height is an important component in three dimensional coordinates and determination of the position of points for any meaningful development. Ellipsoidal heights from GNSS require geoid model which could be global, regional and local for transformation ...
