Verification of the Jakarta Geoid Model from the Gravity Data of 2.5 km Resolution with Gravimetric Geoid

Abstract

Abstract To use the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) correctly, the height information should be transformed into orthometric height by subtracting geoid undulation from it. This orthometric height is commonly used for practical purposes. In 2015 geoid of Jakarta has been produced, and it has an accuracy of 0.076 m. In the year 2019, airborne gravimetry has been done for the entire Java Island. The area of DKI Province cannot be measured because there is inhibition from Airnav. For this reason, terrestrial gravimetric measurements are carried out in this region by adding points outside the previously measured area. To compute the geoid in the Jakarta region is needed the Global Geopotential Model (GGM). In this paper, the GMM used is gif48. The “remove and restore” method will be used in calculating the geoid in this Jakarta region. Besides that in this geoid calculation also uses Stokes kernel and FFT to speed up the calculation. The verification of the resulting geoid is carried with 11 points in DKI Jakarta Province. This verification produces a standard deviation of 0.116 m and a root mean square of 0.411 m.
