LETTER Earth Planets Space, 52, 863–866, 2000 Airborne geoid determination
Airborne geoid mapping techniques may provide the opportunity to improve the geoid over vast areas of the Earth, such as polar areas, tropical jungles and mountainous areas, and provide an accurate “seam-less ” geoid model across most coastal regions.
