The last estimate of the Italian quasigeoid, ITALGEO95, has been accomplished during the first half of 1995. This new computation has been based on a revised data set of gravity covering the area of latitude between 36° and 47° and longitude between 6° and 19°, and an implemented DTM, having a grid mesh of nearly 250m. The method used to get the estimate is the remove-restore technique (with some minor modifications) plus Fast Collocation which allows to obtain the solution over the entire area in one step only. The final product has a regular grid of 3' x 3' . This quasigeoid has been tested with GPS/leveling mesurements which showed a good agreement with it; string improvements have been reached both with respect to pure geopotential model (OSU91A) and the previous Italian geoid (ITALGEO90).

Abstract
The last estimate of the Italian quasigeoid, ITALGEO95, has been accomplished during the first half of 1995. This new computation has been based on a revised data set of gravity covering the area of latitude between 36° and 47° and longitude between 6° and 19°, and an implemented DTM, having a grid mesh of nearly 250m. The method used to get the estimate is the remove-restore technique (with some minor modifications) plus Fast Collocation which allows to obtain the solution over the entire area in one step only. The final product has a regular grid of 3' x 3' . This quasigeoid has been tested with GPS/leveling mesurements which showed a good agreement with it; string improvements have been reached both with respect to pure geopotential model (OSU91A) and the previous Italian geoid (ITALGEO90).I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
