This paper studies the use of two new methods for gravimetric geoid undulation computations: The Molodenskii's and Sjöberg's methods that both modify the original Stokes'function so that certainrms errors are minimized. These new methods were checked against the traditional methods of Stokes' and Meissl's modification with the criterion of the globalrms undulation error that each method implies. Sjöberg's method gave consistently the smallest globalrms undulation error of all the other methods for capsizes 0° to 10°. However with the exception of Stokes' method, for capsizes between 0° to 5°, all the methods gave approximately (within±5cm) the same globalrms undulation error. Actual gravity data within a cap of 2° and potential coefficient information were then combined to compute the undulation of 39 laser stations distributed around the world. Therms discrepancy between the gravimetric undulations using all the four methods and the undulations computed as the ellipsoidal minus the orthometric height of 28 at the above stations was±1.70,±1.65,±1.66,±1.65m for the Stokes', Meissl's, Molodenskii's and Sjöberg's method respectively. For five oceanic laser stations where no terrestrial gravity data was available, theGEOS-3/SEASAT altimeter sea surface heights were used to compute the undulations of these stations in a collocation method. Therms discrepancy between the altimeter derived undulation and the ellipsoidal mirus orthometric value of the undulation was ±1.30m for the above five laser stations. 相似文献

Undulation and anomaly estimation using Geos-3 altimeter data without precise satellite orbits 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The paper describes results obtained from the processing of 53 Geos-3 arcs of altimeter data obtained during the first weeks
after the launch of the satellite in April, 1975. The measurement from the satellite to the ocean surface was used to obtain
an approximate geoid undulation which was contaminated by long wavelength errors caused primarily by altimeter bias and orbit
error. This long wavelength error was reduced by fitting with a low degree polynomial the raw undulation data to the undulations
implied by the GEM 7 potential coefficients, in an adjustment process that included conditions on tracks that cross. The root
mean square crossover discrepancy before this adjustment was ±12.4 meters while after the adjustment it was ±0.9 m. These
adjusted undulations were used to construct a geoid map in the Geos-3 calibration area using a least squares filter to remove
remaining noise in the undulations. Comparing these undulations to ones computed from potential coefficients and terrestrial
gravity data indicates a mean difference of 0.25 m and a root mean square difference of ±1.92 m.
The adjusted undulations were also used to estimate several 5o, 2o, and 1o anomalies using the method of least squares collocation. The resulting predictions agreed well with known values although
the 1o x 1o anomalies could not be considered as reliably determined. 相似文献

Minimization and estimation of geoid undulation errors 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
The objective of this paper is to minimize the geoid undulation errors by focusing on the contribution of the global geopotential model and regional gravity anomalies, and to estimate the accuracy of the predicted gravimetric geoid.The geopotential model's contribution is improved by (a) tailoring it using the regional gravity anomalies and (b) introducing a weighting function to the geopotential coefficients. The tailoring and the weighting function reduced the difference (1) between the geopotential model and the GPS/levelling-derived geoid undulations in British Columbia by about 55% and more than 10%, respectively.Geoid undulations computed in an area of 40° by 120° by Stokes' integral with different kernel functions are analyzed. The use of the approximated kernels results in about 25 cm () and 190 cm (maximum) geoid errors. As compared with the geoid derived by GPS/levelling, the gravimetric geoid gives relative differences of about 0.3 to 1.4 ppm in flat areas, and 1 to 2.5 ppm in mountainous areas for distances of 30 to 200 km, while the absolute difference (1) is about 5 cm and 20 cm, respectively.A optimal Wiener filter is introduced for filtering of the gravity anomaly noise, and the performance is investigated by numerical examples. The internal accuracy of the gravimetric geoid is studied by propagating the errors of the gravity anomalies and the geopotential coefficients into the geoid undulations. Numerical computations indicate that the propagated geoid errors can reasonably reflect the differences between the gravimetric and GPS/levelling-derived geoid undulations in flat areas, such as Alberta, and is over optimistic in the Rocky Mountains of British Columbia.Paper presented at the IAG General Meeting, Beijing, China, August 8–13, 1993. 相似文献

A detailed gravimetric geoid in the North Atlantic Ocean, named DGGNA-77, has been computed, based on a satellite and gravimetry
derived earth potential model (consisting in spherical harmonic coefficients up to degree and order 30) and mean free air
surface gravity anomalies (35180 1°×1° mean values and 245000 4′×4′ mean values). The long wavelength undulations were computed
from the spherical harmonics of the reference potential model and the details were obtained by integrating the residual gravity
anomalies through the Stokes formula: from 0 to 5° with the 4′×4′ data, and from 5° to 20° with the 1°×1° data. For computer
time reasons the final grid was computed with half a degree spacing only. This grid extends from the Gulf of Mexico to the
European and African coasts.
Comparisons have been made with Geos 3 altimetry derived geoid heights and with the 5′×5′ gravimetric geoid derived byMarsh andChang [8] in the northwestern part of the Atlantic Ocean, which show a good agreement in most places apart from some tilts which
porbably come from the satellite orbit recovery. 相似文献

A gravimetric geoid computed using different techniques has been compared to a geoid derived from Geos-3 altimeter data in
two 30°×30° areas: one in the Tonga Trench area and one in the Indian Ocean. The specific techniques used were the usual Stokes
integration (using 1°×1° mean anomalies) with the Molodenskii truncation procedure; a modified Stokes integration with a modified
truncation method; and computations using three sets of potential coefficients including one complete to degree 180. In the
Tonga Trench area the standard deviation of the difference between the modified Stokes’ procedure and the altimeter geoid
was ±1.1 m while in the Indian Ocean area the difference was ±0.6 m. Similar results were found from the 180×180 potential
coefficient field. However, the differences in using the usual Stokes integration procedure were about a factor of two greater
as was predicted from an error analysis.
We conclude that there is good agreement at the ±1 m level between the two types of geoids. In addition, systematic differences
are at the half-meter level. The modified Stokes procedure clearly is superior to the usual Stokes method although the 180×180
solution is of comparable accuracy with the computational effort six times less than the integration procedures. 相似文献

Inverse Vening Meinesz formula and deflection-geoid formula: applications to the predictions of gravity and geoid over the South China Sea 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
C. Hwang 《Journal of Geodesy》1998,72(5):304-312
Using the spherical harmonic representations of the earth's disturbing potential and its functionals, we derive the inverse
Vening Meinesz formula, which converts deflection of the vertical to gravity anomaly using the gradient of the H function. The deflection-geoid formula is also derived that converts deflection to geoidal undulation using the gradient
of the C function. The two formulae are implemented by the 1D FFT and the 2D FFT methods. The innermost zone effect is derived. The
inverse Vening Meinesz formula is employed to compute gravity anomalies and geoidal undulations over the South China Sea using
deflections from Seasat, Geosat, ERS-1 and TOPEX//POSEIDON satellite altimetry. The 1D FFT yields the best result of 9.9-mgal
rms difference with the shipborne gravity anomalies. Using the simulated deflections from EGM96, the deflection-geoid formula
yields a 4-cm rms difference with the EGM96-generated geoid. The predicted gravity anomalies and geoidal undulations can be
used to study the tectonic structure and the ocean circulations of the South China Sea.

Spherical harmonic expansions of the geopotential are frequently used for modelling the earth’s gravity field. Degree and
order of recently available models go up to 360, corresponding to a resolution of about50 km. Thus, the high degree potential coefficients can be verified nowadays even by locally distributed sets of terrestrial gravity
anomalies. These verifications are important when combining the short wavelength model impact, e.g. for regional geoid determinations
by means of collocation solutions. A method based on integral formulae is presented, enabling the improvement of geopotential
models with respect to non-global distributed gravity anomalies. To illustrate the foregoing, geoid computations are carried
out for the area of Iran, introducing theGPM2 geopotential model in combination with available regional gravity data. The accuracy of the geoid determination is estimated
from a comparison with Doppler and levelling data to ±1.4m. 相似文献

Summary Satellite gradiometry is studied as a means to improve the geoid in local areas from a limited data coverage. Least-squares
collocation is used for this purpose because it allows to combine heterogeneous data in a consistent way and to estimate the
integrated effect of the attenuated spectrum. In this way accuracy studies can be performed in a general and reliable manner.
It is shown that only three second-order gradients contribute significantly to the estimation of the geoidal undulations and
that it is sufficient to have gradiometer data in a 5°×5° area around the estimation point. The accuracy of the geoid determination
is strongly dependent on the degree and order of the reference field used. An accuracy of about ±1 m can be achieved with
a reference field of (12, 12). There is an optimal satellite altitude for each reference field and this altitude may be higher
than 300 km for a field of low degree and order. The influence of measuring errors is discussed and it is shown that only
gradiometer data with accuracies better than ±0.05 E will give a significant improvement of the geoid. Finally, some results
on the combination of satellite gradiometry and terrestrial gravity measurements are given.
The proposed method seems to be well suited for local geoid determinations down to the meter range. It is especially interesting
for unsurveyed and difficult areas because no terrestrial measurements are necessary. Furthermore, it has the practical advantage
that only a local data coverage is needed. 相似文献

In the analyses of 2D real arrays, fast Hartley (FHT), fast T (FTT) and real-valued fast Fourier transforms are generally
preferred in lieu of a complex fast Fourier transform due to the advantages of the former with respect to disk storage and
computation time. Although the FHT and the FTT in one dimension are identical, they are different in two or more dimensions.
Therefore, first, definitions and some properties of both transforms and the related 2D FHT and FTT algorithms are stated.
After reviewing the 2D FHT and FTT solutions of Stokes' formula in planar approximation, 2D FHT and FTT methods are developed
for geoid updating to incorporate additional gravity anomalies. The methods are applied for a test area which includes a 64×64
grid of 3′×3′ point gravity anomalies and geoid heights calculated from point masses. The geoids computed by 2D FHT and FTT are found to
be identical. However, the RMS value of the differences between the computed and test geoid is ±15 mm. The numerical simulations
indicate that the new methods of geoid updating are practical and accurate with considerable savings on storage requirements.

多种类型高分辨率重力场数据的不断增加,使得在局部范围内精化重力场模型成为了可能。本文采用Abel-Poisson核将重力场量表示成有限个径向基函数线性求和的形式,对局部区域的多种重力场数据进行联合建模。为了提高运算速度,运用了基于自适应精化格网算法的最小均方根误差准则(RMS)来求解径向基函数平均带宽。以南海核心地区为例,联合两种不同类型、不同分辨率的重力场资料(大地水准面起伏6'×6'、重力异常2'×2'),构建了局部区域高分辨率的重力场模型。所建模型表示的重力场参量达到了2'×2'的分辨率,对原始的重力异常数据(2'×2')拟合的符合程度达到±0.8×10-5m/s2。结果表明,利用径向基函数方法进行局部重力场建模,避免了球谐函数建模收敛慢的问题,有效提高了模型表示重力场的分辨率。 相似文献

A geodetic boundary value problem (GBVP) approach has been formulated which can be used for solving the problem of height
datum unification. The developed technique is applied to a test area in Southwest Finland with approximate size of 1.5° ×
3° and the bias of the corresponding local height datum (local geoid) with respect to the geoid is computed. For this purpose
the bias-free potential difference and gravity difference observations of the test area are used and the offset (bias) of
the height datum, i.e., Finnish Height Datum 2000 (N2000) fixed to Normaal Amsterdams Peil (NAP) as origin point, with respect
to the geoid is computed. The results of this computation show that potential of the origin point of N2000, i.e., NAP, is
(62636857.68 ± 0.5) (m2/s2) and as such is (0.191 ± 0.003) (m) under the geoid defined by W
0 = 62636855.8 (m2/s2). As the validity test of our methodology, the test area is divided into two parts and the corresponding potential difference
and gravity difference observations are introduced into our GBVP separately and the bias of height datums of the two parts
are computed with respect to the geoid. Obtaining approximately the same bias values for the height datums of the two parts
being part of one height datum with one origin point proves the validity of our approach. Besides, the latter test shows the
capability of our methodology for patch-wise application. 相似文献

Two models describing potential coefficient behavior are used to estimate the root mean square geoid undulation by wavelength.
Four wavelength types were defined: long wavelengths: ℓ=2 to 10; intermediate wavelengths: ℓ=11 to 100; short wavelengths:
ℓ=101 to 1000; and very short wavelengths: ℓ=1001 to ∞. By one representation of potential coefficient behavior the intermediate
wavelength geoid information was ±5.64 m, short wavelength, ±0.66 m, and the very short wavelength, ±0.05 m. The procedures
of this paper were applied to an actual residual undulation computation using detailed gravity material. 相似文献

Errors are considered in the outer zone contribution to oceanic undulation differences as obtained from a set of potential
coefficients complete to degree 180. It is assumed that the gravity data of the inner zone (a spherical cap), consisting of
either gravity anomalies or gravity disturbances, has negligible error. This implies that error estimates of the total undulation
difference are analyzed. If the potential coefficients are derived from a global field of 1°×1° mean anomalies accurate to
εΔg=10 mgal, then for a cap radius of 10°, the undulation difference error (for separations between 100 km and 2000 km) ranges
from 13 cm to 55 cm in the gravity anomaly case and from 6 cm to 36 cm in the gravity disturbance case. If εΔg is reduced to 1 mgal, these errors in both cases are less than 10 cm. In the absence of a spherical cap, both cases yield
identical error estimates: about 68 cm if εΔg=1 mgal (for most separations) and ranging from 93 cm to 160 cm if εΔg=10 mgal. Introducing a perfect 30-degree reference field, the latter errors are reduced to about 110 cm for most separations. 相似文献

The aim of this investigation is to study some FFT problems related to the application of FFT to gravity field convolution integrals. And the others, such as the effect of spectral leakage, edge effects, cyclic convolution and effect of padding, are also discussed. A numerical test for these problems is made. A large area of Western China selected for the test is located between 30°N~36°N and 96°E~102°E and includes 1 858 gravity observations on land. The results show that the removal of the bias in the residual gravity anomalies is important to avoid spectral leakage. One hundred percent zero padding is highly recommended for further research of the geoid to remove cyclic convolution errors and edge effects. 1-D FFT is recommended for precise local geoid determination because it does not use kernel approximation. 相似文献

The Stokes formula is efficiently evaluated by the one-and two- dimensional (1D, 2D) fast Fourier transform (FFT) technique in the plane and on the sphere in order to obtain precise geoid determinatiover a large area such as Europe. Using a high-pass filtered spherical harmonic reference model (OSU91A truncated to different degrees), gridded gravity anomalies and geoid heights were produced and the anomalies were used as input in the FFT software. Various tests were performed with respect to the different kernel functions used, to the spherical computations in bands, as well as to windowing, edge effects and extent of the area. It is thus demonstrated that, in geoid computations over large regions, the 1D spherical FFT and the 2D multiband spherical FFT in combination with discrete spectra for the kernel functions and 100% zero-padding give better results than those obtained by the other transform techniques. Additionally, numerical tests were carried out at the same test area using the planar fast Hartley transform (FHT) instead of the FFT and the results obtained by the two attractive alternatives were compared regarding the requirements in both computer time and computer memory needed in geoid height computations.A slightly modified version of the paper has been presented at the XX EGS General Assembly, Hamburg, 3–7 April, 1995 相似文献

Mean gravity anomalies, deflections of the vertical, and a geopotential model complete to degree and order180 are combined in order to determine geoidal heights in the area bounded by [34°≦ϕ≤42°, 18°≦λ≦28°]. Moreover, employing point
gravity anomalies simultaneously with the above data, an attempt is made to predict deflections of the vertical in the same
area. The method used in the computations is least squares collocation. Using empirical covariance functions for the data,
the suitable errors for the different sources of observations, and the optimum cap radius around each point of evaluation,
an accuracy better than±0.60m for geoidal heights and±1″.5 for deflections of the vertical is obtained taking into account existing systematic effects. This accuracy refers to the
comparison between observed and predicted values. 相似文献

The investigations refer to the compartment method by using mean terrestrial free air anomalies only. Three main error influences of remote areas (distance from the fixed point >9°) on height anomalies and deflections of the vertical are being regarded:
- The prediction errors of mean terrestrial free air anomalies have the greatest influence and amount to about ±0″.2 in each component for deflections of the vertical and to ±3 m for height anomalies;
- The error of the compartment method, which originates from converting the integral formulas of Stokes and Vening-Meinesz into summation formulas, can be neglected if the anomalies for points and gravity profiles are compiled to 5°×5° mean values.
- The influences of the mean gravimetric correction terms of Arnold—estimated for important mountains of the Earth by means of an approximate formula—on height anomalies may amount to 1–2 m and on deflections of the vertical to 0″0.5–0″.1, and, therefore, they have to be taken into account for exact calculations.
