Research topics

Deakin R E, 1997, Integrated Geodesy, (Continuing), Integrated Geodesy allows the combination of all types of geodetic measurements in a general least squares solution for position and gravity potential. This is a modern geodetic approach to adjustment of measurement data involving geopotential models of the Earth combined with gravity data.
