As a result, the International Geoid Commission was formed to provide a focus for this important geoid research. \u003cb\u003eDetermination of the \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cb\u003eGeoid\u003c\/b\u003e: \u003cb\u003ePresent and Future\u003c\/b\u003e is the result of the first meeting of the Commission, held at the Instituto di Topografia, Fotogrammetria e Geofisica at the Politecnico di Milano, June 1990. Six major topics are presented: Global Geopotential Models: Present and Future; Role of Topography in Geoid Computations; the Geoid and the Global Positioning System; the State of Computation of National or Regional Geoids; Software and Data Improvements for Geoid Computations; and Recent Developments in the GEOMED (Determination of the Geoid in the Mediterranean) Project.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublished by: Springer\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePublication Date: 1991-08-14\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFormat: Paperback\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eISBN-13: 9780387974705\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDOI: 10.1007\/978-1-4612-3104-2\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDimensions: 279cm x210cm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePages: 500\u003c\/p\u003e ","brand":"Springer New York","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44408076009612,"sku":"9780387974705","price":98.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0710\/9545\/1788\/files\/9780387974705.jpg?v=1776438694","url":"https:\/\/fh90cf-fv.myshopify.com\/products\/9780387974705","provider":"Late Knight Books and Services, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
