Abstract

Until recently, the solution of the main task of higher geodesy - determination of the Earth's shape - was connected with the study of the external gravitational field and the shape of Listing's geoid. The only method of gravimetric derivation of the geoid's shape was the Stokes method, the application of which requires the removal of masses external to the geoid, the so-called regularization of the Earth.
