Abstract
This study assesses the effect of the UNB Topographical Density Model on the accuracy of geoid determination in Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina. Using the KTH method, 1020 gravimetric geoid models were developed, incorporating both constant and variable density values, simple and complete Bouguer anomalies. The study found that the model computed by the UNB Topographical Density Model and complete Bouguer anomalies achieved the highest precision, with an RMSE of 1.33 cm. The final geoid model was adjusted to the old vertical datum (Trieste height), resulting in an RMSE of 3.44 cm when tested with static GNSS points. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating variable density models for improving geoid accuracy and suggest further refinement using local geological data could enhance precision.
期刊介绍：
The journal publishes original research papers in the field of geodesy and geophysics under headings: aeronomy and space physics, electromagnetic studies, geodesy and gravimetry, geodynamics, geomathematics, rock physics, seismology, solid earth physics, history. Papers dealing with problems of the Carpathian region and its surroundings are preferred. Similarly, papers on topics traditionally covered by Hungarian geodesists and geophysicists (e.g. robust estimations, geoid, EM properties of the Earth’s crust, geomagnetic pulsations and seismological risk) are especially welcome.
