Estimating Canadian vertical datum offsets using GNSS/levelling benchmark information and GOCE global geopotential models

open access: yesJournal of Geodetic Science, 2012
The performance of GOCE-based geopotential models is assessed for the estimation of offsets for three regional vertical datums in Canada with respect to a global equipotential surface using the GNSS benchmarks from the first-order vertical control ...

OFFSET EVALUATION OF THE ECUADORIAN VERTICAL DATUM RELATED TO THE IHRS

open access: yesBoletim de Ciências Geodésicas, 2018
Considering the definition of the International Height Reference System (IHRS) in the geopotential space (Resolution 1/2015, International Association of Geodesy - IAG), among the present main objectives of the international geodetic community is the ...

NonLocal Systems of Balance Laws in Several Space Dimensions with Applications to Laser Technolog [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
For a class of systems of nonlinear and nonlocal balance laws in several space dimensions, we prove the local in time existence of solutions and their continuous dependence on the initial datum.

Vertical datum and coordinate systems in Jordan

open access: yesInternational Journal of Information Technology, Communications and Convergence, 2011
Advancement in satellites and telecommunication technologies has created a great interest in global positioning system (GPS) applications. The lack of a good geoid model for Jordan has limited the use of GPS applications. This has lead to refining the Jordanian geoid model for better GPS measurements in order to obtain reliable results in the triplet ...

Measuring the Water Level Datum Relative to the Ellipsoid During Hydrographic Survey [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Hydrographic surveys are referenced vertically to a local water level “chart” datum. Conducting a survey relative to the ellipsoid dictates a datum transformation take place before the survey is used for current navigational products.

Evolutionary radiation of large‐bodied gorgonopsians from the lower Abrahamskraal formation of South Africa

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The middle Permian represents a critical interval in therapsid evolution, when gorgonopsians emerged as some of the first specialized apex predators within terrestrial ecosystems. Despite their significance, the early diversification of Gorgonopsia in Gondwana remains poorly understood due to scarcity and fragmentary material.

New Approaches for Evaluating Lidar-Derived Shoreline [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This study presents and compares two new methods of assessing the uncertainty of lidar-derived National Shoreline mapped by NOAA’s National Geodetic Survey: an empirical (ground-based) approach and a stochastic (Monte Carlo) approach.

Under the Shade of a Coolabah Tree: A Second Cache of Tulas From the Boulia District, Western Queensland

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reports on the excavation of a cache of stone artefacts, buried on the bank of a waterhole or ‘billabong’ in central western Queensland. This is an extremely rare find, and yet it is the second such site to be reported within less than a 10 km radius.

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.
