- Geoid – Wikipedia
Das Geoid ist ein physikalisches Modell der Erdfigur, das 1828 von Carl Friedrich Gauß beschrieben wurde – im Gegensatz zum geometrischen Modell des Erdellipsoids
- What is a Geoid? Why do we use it and where does its shape come from?
A geoid is the irregular-shaped “ball” that scientists use to more accurately calculate depths of earthquakes, or any other deep object beneath the earth’s surface
- Understanding Geographic Identifiers (GEOIDs) - Census. gov
GEOIDs are numeric codes that uniquely identify all administrative legal and statistical geographic areas for which the Census Bureau tabulates data From Alaska, the largest state, to the smallest census block in New York City, every geographic area has a unique GEOID
- Geoid | Definition Examples | Britannica
Geoid, model of Earth’s size and shape that coincides with mean sea level over the oceans and continues in continental areas as an imaginary sea-level surface It is everywhere perpendicular to the pull of gravity and approximates the shape of a regular oblate spheroid (i e , a flattened sphere)
- Geoid - Lexikon der Geowissenschaften - Spektrum. de
Das Geoid ist Bezugsfläche für die orthometrischen Höhen Die nach J B Listing (1872) als Geoid bezeichnete Äquipotentialfläche wurde erstmals von C F Gauß (1828) definiert und mathematisch beschrieben
- What is the geoid? - NOAAs National Ocean Service
What is the geoid? The geoid is a model of global mean sea level that is used to measure precise surface elevations A depiction of the United States geoid Areas in yellow and orange have a slightly stronger gravity field as a result of the Rocky Mountains
- The Geoid – Hypothetical Mean Sea Level - GIS Geography
The geoid measures mean sea level and gravity The GRACE and GOCE satellites are providing the most accurate measurements of the geoid to this date
- Geoid - Wikipedia
The geoid is often expressed as a geoid undulation or geoidal height above a given reference ellipsoid, which is a slightly flattened sphere whose equatorial bulge is caused by the planet's rotation
