I'm jumping into the middle of this conversation, but I wanted to clarify something. I don't know if it will add to the discussion, but I hope it will.
The Geoid is not a mathematical figure like an ellipsoid, so I don't think you can really refer to "conversion" equations. A geoid is more like a surface. The inconsistencies between geoid models doesn't come from different equations/formulae, but from the amount of gravity samples and other data used to create the model. In this sense a Geoid is somewhat unique in the field of geodesy. It is always possible to take more samples and build a better one. :] Landon On Mon, Jun 30, 2008 at 7:52 AM, Michael Bedward <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Many thanks Martin, Simone and Adrian for those further comments - > they are very helpful for my thinking and much appreciated. > > ciao > Michael > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace. > It's the best place to buy or sell services for > just about anything Open Source. > http://sourceforge.net/services/buy/index.php > _______________________________________________ > Geotools-devel mailing list > Geotools-devel@lists.sourceforge.net > https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geotools-devel > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
