Abstract

Abstract A high-resolution gravimetric geoid model was developed for the Eastern Province Kingdom of Saudi Arabia region. The model was created using various datasets, including 320,434 land gravity measurements, 5442 shipborne marine gravity data, the DTU17 altimetry gravity model, and the XGM2019e global geopotential model. The computation strategy employed for modeling the gravimetric geoid involved the Remove-Compute-Restore method with Residual Terrain Model reduction and the 1D-Fast Fourier Transform approach technique. Geoid heights were determined using the Stokes integral with the Wong-Gore modification. To assess the accuracy of the resulting geoid models, they were compared with 4401 GNSS/Levelling points. The geoid accuracy throughout the entire area is better than 1.6 cm in terms of standard deviation (STD) after fitting.
