The Importance of Using Deviations of the Vertical for the Reduction of Survey Data to a Geocentric Datum

This paper reviews the deviation of vertical and its use in the reduction of terrestrial survey data such as directions, azimuths, zenith angles and slope distances. The deviations of the vertical over Australia will change by an average of 6.8 due to the implementation of the Geocentric Datum of Au...
