Problem with Ellipsoid Heights
• They are new: easily obtained since the
80s with GPS, not accurate enough
before. By comparison, triangulation exists
since around 1500.
• They do not represent what most users
want which is to see that “water flows
downhill!” => need potential based height.

U depends on 4 constants:
- ω is known
- U0 is computed by imposing: mass of the ellipsoid = mass of Earth
- a and E are derived from satellite observations choosing Earth J2

Different Types of Geoid
– Current NGS definition of geoid: The equipotential surface of the
Earth's gravity field which best fits, in a least squares sense, global
mean sea level
– The definition of the geoid is complicated by the permanent deformation
of the Earth caused by the presence of the Sun and the Moon.
Consideration of these permanent tidal effects has led to the definition
of three types of geoids and three types of reference ellipsoids [Ekman,
1989, 1995; Rapp et al., 1991; Bursa, 1995a]. The three geoids are
described as follows:
1. Tide-free (or nontidal)—This geoid would exist for a tide-free Earth
with all (direct and indirect) effects of the Sun and Moon removed.
2. Mean—This geoid would exist in the presence of the Sun and the
Moon (or, equivalently, if no permanent tidal effects are removed).
3. Zero—This geoid would exist if the permanent direct effects of the
Sun and Moon are removed, but the indirect effect component
related to the elastic deformation of the Earth is retained.

Geoid in the US
• NGS Definition: The equipotential surface of the Earth's gravity
field which best fits, in a least squares sense, global mean sea level.
• NGS Warnings: Even though we adopt a definition, that does not
mean we are perfect in the realization of that definition. For
example, altimetry is often used to define "mean sea level" in the
oceans, but altimetry is not global (missing the near polar regions).
As such, the fit between "global" mean sea level and the geoid is not
entirely confirmable. Also, there may be non-periodic changes in sea
level (like a persistent rise in sea level, for example). If so, then
"mean sea level" changes in time, and therefore the geoid should
also change in time. These are just a few examples of the difficulty
in defining "the geoid".

Leveling

• The process of
precise leveling is
to measure height
differences and to
sum these to get
the heights of other
points.

Orthometric Height
• How to compute gravity inside the Earth?
– Assume a simple terrain model: Bouguer
plate (standard density 2.67g/cm3)
– Perform the following steps:
• Remove the Bouguer plate
• Do the free air anomaly
• Restore the Bouguer plate
– Final formula:
• Helmert heights:
