    An alternative geoid model for Africa using the shallow-layer method

    The aim of the current investigation is to determine an alternative geoid model for Africa using the shallow-layer method. The shallow-layer method, following the basic definition of the geoid, differs essenti...

    Effect of great lakes on gravity reduction and geoid determination caused by unclassified DTMs: case study for Lake Victoria, Africa

    The determination of the gravimetric geoid is based on the magnitude of gravity observed at the topographic surface of the Earth. In order to satisfy Laplace’s equation, the masses between the surface of the E...
