                            Description:
                                 
								The UQG2006 model is a gravimetry-only for the Ukraine 
								and Moldova area with a grid resolution of 2'x3'. It 
								is referred to the GRS80 ellipsoid and it was constructed from the 
								following two data sets: (a) digitized gravity anomalies from BGI and (b) 
								gravity anomalies in the Black Sea area derived from altimetry data of 
								TOPEX/POSEIDON, ERS-1, ERS
								-2, JASON-1, ENVISAT, and GFO missions for  
								the period from 1992 to 2005 year. The remove-restore technique was applied 
								to get rid of the long wavelength constituent of the gravity field by using 
								the EIGEN-CG01C global model up to degree and order 360. Terrain reductions 
								were based on the 1'x1' DTM GEBCO. The prediction of the residual height 
								anomalies was performed by collocation with regularization, where the 
								regularization parameter is a weighting factor multiplied to the noise 
								covariance. Comparisons of the gravimetric UQG2006 quasigeoid with GPS/levelling 
								data show differences with a standard deviation smaller than 8 cm.
