Description:
Greek Geoid 2010 is a gravimetric geoid model and has been computed by the GeoGrav
group at the Department of Geodesy and Surveying, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
The area covered by the geoid is 33 ° < lat < 42 °, 18.5 ° < lon < 30 ° with a grid spacing of 2'
in both latitude and in longitude. The computation is based on the remove-compute-restore technique
with EGM2008 being used as a reference field. The topographic effects have been computed with the RTM
reduction scheme employing a regionally-refined SRTM90m DTM and DBM. The input gravity data refer to
land, marine and airborne gravity anomalies for the wider Hellenic area. The final estimation was carried
our in one step for the entire region using 1D FFT and the spherical Stokes kernel. The mean accuracy of
the geoid model, when compared against collocated GPS/Levelling data is at the 3-5 cm level.
