Description:
The PNG94 model is a gravimetric geoid for Papua New Guinea. The computation is based on the remove-restore
technique using 34,163 free air gravity data provided by GETECH, a commercial arm of the Department of Earth
Sciences at Leeds university, UK. The reference global model is OSU91A, while no terrain corrections are computed
because no DTM is available. A ring integration technique is used to compute the final geoid grid with a spatial
resolution of 0.1°.
