Accuracy of Heights from Ordnance Survey Maps
1) Spot heights at summits have an accuracy of about ±3.3m at all map scales, in agreement with the published figure. 2) Levelled heights from old 6-inch maps can be a few metres below the summit but are unlikely to be more than a few tenths of a metre higher. 3) The accuracy of old and new 1:50k maps is similar, but where heights have changed the old height has a tendency to be too low. 4) Spo...
متن کاملMean kernels to improve gravimetric geoid determination based on modified Stokes's integration
Gravimetric geoid computation is often based on modified Stokes’s integration, where Stokes’s integral is evaluated with some stochastic or deterministic kernel modification. Accurate numerical evaluation of Stokes’s integral requires the modified kernel to be integrated across the area of each discretised grid cell (mean kernel). Evaluating the modified kernel at the centre of the cell (point ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Efficiency of Multi-purpose Gravity Network of NCC to Precise Geoid Determination, Case Study: Northwest Area of Iran
The national height system of Iran, orthomertic height, is referred to geoid as the vertical datum. Consequently, the geoid has many important applications in engineering. The slow, laborious and expensive orthomertic heights can be obtained in sufficient accuracy level from geodetic height (derived by GNSS observations) and a precise geoidal height. Over the past two decades, the gravity divis...
متن کاملEffect of increasing number of neurons using artificial neural network to estimate geoid heights
Nowadays the GPS measurements are one of the most frequently used technique in geodesy. With this technique ellipsoidal height can be reckoned. However in the engineering practice orthometric heights (height above sea level) are used. The orthometric heights are determined by levelling. Transforming the GPS-derived ellipsoidal heights to orthometric heights it is important to know the distance ...
متن کاملThe combination of GNSS-levelling data and gravimetric (quasi-) geoid heights in the presence of noise
We propose a methodology for the combination of a gravimetric (quasi-) geoid with GNSS-levelling data in the presence of noise with correlations and/or spatially varying noise variances. It comprises two steps: first, a gravimetric (quasi-) geoid is computed using the available gravity data, which, in a second step, is improved using ellipsoidal heights at benchmarks provided by GNSS once they ...
