Determination of the Orthometric Height inside Mosul University campus by using GPS data and EGM96 Geoid Model

An Analysis on the Optimal Combination of Geoid, Orthometric and Ellipsoidal Height Data

Geoid undulation modelling and interpretation at Ladak, NW Himalaya using GPS and levelling data

Fast and accurate relative positioning for baselines less than 20 km in length is possible using dual-frequency Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. By measuring orthometric heights of a few GPS stations by di€erential levelling techniques, the geoid undulation can be modelled, which enables GPS to be used for orthometric height determination in a much faster and more economical way than ...

a study on insurer solvency by panel data model: the case of iranian insurance market

the aim of this thesis is an approach for assessing insurer’s solvency for iranian insurance companies. we use of economic data with both time series and cross-sectional variation, thus by using the panel data model will survey the insurer solvency.

Precise Determination of the Orthometric Height of Mt. Kilimanjaro

SUMMARY Mount Kilimanjaro, located in Tanzania, is the highest mountain in Africa. Furthermore, this dormant volcano is the highest " stand-alone " (it has an almost perfectly shaped volcano form) and " walkable " (it is not necessary to use special climbing equipment) mountain in the world. Located on the plate boundary between Somalia and Victoria tectonic blocks, Mount Kilimanjaro started to...

Gravimetric Geoid Determination by Using Terrestrial and Satellite-derived Data

Being a fundamental vertical reference surface, the use of the geoid is not limited to geodesy/geodetic applications. It is also used, but not limited to, in geophysics (i.e. interpretation of the Earth’s internal structure, solid earth science), geology (i.e. subsurface delineation), oceanography, and mapping/geographic information systems (GIS)/national spatial development infrastructure (NSD...
