Of Planes and Plumblines: Map Projections and Differential Leveling in a GNSS-based 3D Geodetic Framework

Creator:

Dennis, Michael L.

Abstract:

Modern geospatial data are frequently represented in some type of three-dimensional (3D) coordinate system, for example geodetic latitude, longitude, and ellipsoid height (φ, λ, h) derived from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). But for engineering and surveying work, φ, λ, h coordinates are usually converted to a topocentric system consisting...
