Physical Geodesy

The second edition of "Physical Geodesy" reflects significant advancements in the field since its original publication in 1967. It incorporates modern techniques like GPS and satellite methods that enhance the precision of geometric and gravitational measurements. Key features include a focus on global integration of geometry and gravity, a simplified explanation of Molodensky's theory, and a comprehensive approach to geodetic data using least-squares collocation. The updated edition also corrects minor errors from the first.
