I guess you are saying that the real shape of the world differs more in your area than in most of the rest of the world from the ellipsoide model. Is that a correct interpretation? My instinct is that this would have most influence on height. The reality can't be much different from the WGS 84 model can it? Any idea of the difference in meters? _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list [email protected] https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts
