New solutions for the geoid potential W0 and the Mean Earth Ellipsoid dimensions

Earth Gravitational Models (EGMs) describe the Earth’s gravity field including the geoid, except for its zero-degree harmonic, which is a scaling parameter that needs a known geometric distance for its calibration. Today this scale can be provided by the absolute geoid height as estimated from satel...
