Description:
SWEN08_RH2000 is a Swedish height correction model that has been computed by adapting the Swedish gravimetric quasigeoid model KTH08 to
the Swedish three-dimensional reference system SWEREF 99 (ETRS89 realization) and to the modern Swedish height system RH 2000 (EVRS realization).
It is referred to the GRS80 ellipsoid and extends from 54°N to 74°N and from 10°E to 25°E with a grid spacing of 1.2' x 2.4'. The model includes
permanent tide and postglacial land uplift corrections and is derived by first shifting the gravimetric model (KTH08) and then adding a smooth
residual surface computed by least squares collocation based on an updated Swedish GNSS/levelling dataset. The standard uncertainty of SWEN08_RH2000
has been estimated to 10-15 mm everywhere on the Swedish mainland with exception of the area to the north-west not covered by the third Swedish
precise levelling. The standard error is larger in the latter area and at sea, probably around 5-10 cm.
