Rapid growth of geodetic information provided by the Global
Positioning System (GPS) and stringent requirements for a precise
geoid in ocean areas for ocean circulation models have spurred
interest in geoid studies. As a result, the International Geoid
Commission was formed to provide a focus for this important geoid
research. Determination of the Geoid: Present and Future 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.
