Abstract

Modern scientific research is largely focused on interdisciplinary aspect of individual technical disciplines in research and scientific approach in discovering new insights. In the field of geo-sciences, there is a wide range of mutual methods of measuring physical parameters needed for the determination of geologic and structural composition of the underground area, the density of surface layers, the Earth’s gravity field, i.e. local gravity changes. This paper explains the influences of topography of the Earth masses in the determination of vertical deflections needed for the transformation of the heights by means of trigonometric levelling methods in the real gravity field acceleration.

Keywords

relief correction and residual terrain modelling; topographic isostatic reduction; topographic reduction; vertical deflection
