      The orthometric height is the distance, measured positive outwards along the plumbline, from the geoid (zero orthometric height) to a point of interest, usually on the topographic surface (e.g., Heiskanen and Moritz 1967, chap 4; Vaníek and Krakiwsky 1986; chap 16.4). The curved plumbline is at every point tangential to the gravity vector ...

      The GPS gives ellipsoidal heights which makes the conversion of the heights to orthometric heights possible by incorporating a geoid model. The conventional method of determining orthometric height is tedious, time-consuming, and labour intensive. This study entails the determination of orthometric height using GNSS and EGM data.

      undulations can be modelled, which enables the GPS to be used for orthometric heights determination in a much faster and more economical way than terrestrial methods (Rozsa, 1999). Thus a combination of GPS derived ellipsoidal heights and an accurate geoid model provides a new alternative method for orthometric height determination.
