Strategies for the accurate determination of orthometric heights from GPS

In order for Global Positioning System (GPS)derived ellipsoidal heights to have any physical meaning in a surveying or engineering application, they must be transformed to orthometric heights. A practical approach is presented, where gravimetrically and geometrically derived geoid heights are combin...
