Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, we present an attempt to determine the accuracy of shipborne gravimetry for the needs of geoid determination. The shipborne gravity campaign, described in this article, is the beginning of a series of gravimetry measurements in the Polish Exclusive Economy Zone. The campaign was conducted in the area where the accuracy of geoid determination is crucial for the safety of navigation on numerous intersecting ships' routes. The vicinity of the seashore, various depths, and short‐lasting campaign enabled determination of the level of measurement accuracy that can be obtained depending on the conditions. Internal data consistency was estimated as well as an attempt to compute external accuracy. The data were compared with satellite data available for the region. We identified which of the differences are related to the influence of external factors.
