Estimation of the ocean geoid near the Blake Escarpment using GEOS-3 satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes
The accuracy with which the local ocean geoid structure could be determined using satellite altimetry data was investigated. The undulation and along-track component of the vertical deflection for selected passes of GEOS-3 near the Blake Escarpment were ...

Reducing the error of geoid undulation computations by modifying Stokes' function [PDF]

open access: yes
The truncation theory as it pertains to the calculation of geoid undulations based on Stokes' integral, but from limited gravity data, is reexamined. Specifically, the improved procedures of Molodenskii et al.

User's guide: Programs for processing altimeter data over inland seas [PDF]

open access: yes
The programs described were developed to process GEODYN-formatted satellite altimeter data, and to apply the processed results to predict geoid undulations and gravity anomalies of inland sea areas.

Enhancement of height system for Malaysia using space technology: the study of the datum bias inconsistencies in Peninsular Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The algorithm for orthometric height transfer using GPS has been widely presented. Its practical limitations are mostly due to datum bias inconsistencies and lack of precise geoid.
