The geoid (/ˈdʒiː.ɔɪd/ JEE-oyd) is the shape that the ocean surface would take under the influence of the gravity of Earth, including gravitational attraction...

The Indian Ocean Geoid Low (IOGL) is a gravity anomaly in the Indian Ocean. A circular region in the Earth's geoid, situated just south of the Indian...

Grid Cells NAC (patended), area codes (area can be indefinitely small) GEOID, the name of United States Census Bureau geographic identifiers. In the...

the study of Earth's gravitational field is called physical geodesy. The geoid essentially is the figure of Earth abstracted from its topographical features...

and gravimetric geoids. By matching the relative astro-geodetic geoids of the selected datums with an earth-centered gravimetric geoid, the selected datums...

approximate the geoid by a mathematically simpler reference surface. The simplest choice for the reference surface is a sphere, but the geoid is more accurately...

between the two, referred to as geoid undulations, geoid heights, or geoid separations, will be irregular as well. The geoid is a surface along which the...

anomalies, defines the geoid of the Earth, which approximates the local mean sea level for locations in the open ocean. The geoid includes a significant...

ellipsoid. This difference is the geoid height, positive above or outside the ellipsoid, negative below or inside. The geoid height variation is under 110 m...

is a planetary geoid that represents the gravitational and rotational equipotential figure of Mars, analogous to the concept of geoid ("sea level") on...
