Abstract
Over the last 20 years, new methods have been introduced in geodesic science, allowing to solve all the main problems of geodesy by the values characterizing the external gravitational field and the figure of the Earth's physical surface.In the non-pratial and complex physical surface of the Earth, a smooth surface close to Listing's geoid, called quasigeoid, is distinguished.
