Do We Need a Gravimetric Geoid or a Model of the Australian Height Datum to Transform GPS Heights in Australia?

A proposal is made to use a model of the Australian Height Datum (AHD) instead of the classical geoid to provide a more direct transformation of Global Positioning System (GPS) ellipsoidal heights to the AHD. This approach avoids post-survey adjustment of the GPS-AUSGEOID-derived heights in order t...
