Geoid: Art, Formulation & Determination

The geoid (/ˈdʒiː.ɔɪd/ JEE-oyd) is the shape that the ocean surface would take under the influence of the gravity of Earth, including gravitational attraction and Earth's rotation, if other influences such as winds and tides were absent. This surface is extended through the continents (such as might be approximated with very narrow hypothetical canals).…
