The calculation of astronomic latitude and longitude have been carried by astrolabe, theodolite. Conventional procedures to determine it require clear weather conditions, time high cost. So we need more effective method to decide them. The objective here is to present method to computate astronomic latitude and longitude by mixing GPS observation result and geodetic height. Also to decide geodetic height we used GPS/leveling, DMA(n=m=180) and OSU91A(n=m=360) methods. Compared to conventional procedures we could obtain astronomic latitude and longitude using GPS by $1{\sim}3'$ difference. If the precise geoid model of Korea will be developed, we can compute astronomic latitude and longitude effectively using GPS observation only.

To construct precision geoid model, the gravity data having equal distribution and quality is necessary. In previous study, however, the geoid model has low precision since the biased distributed gravity data and some unverified data has been used and the gap between land and ocean exists. Now, the airborne and land gravity data was collected by various survey and the ship-borne gravity data and altimeter data has been achieved. Therefore, the precision geoid model development would be possible. And the GPS/Leveling data obtained by NGII could be used for construction of hybrid geoid in Korea. In this study, the procedure of geoid construction based on airborne, land, ship-borne and altimeter data using Remove-Restore technique will be explained. And the verification of gravimetric geoid and hybrid geoid would be introduced.

This paper deals with gravimetric geoid determination by Fast Hartely transform (FHT) technique in and around the Korean peninsula. A number of data files were compiled for this work, containing now more than 69, 001 point gravity data on land and ocean areas. Especially, regression was applied to estimate gravity anomalies in the northern area of peninsula. For evaluating accuracy of geoid obtained, GPS/Leveling data of 49 stations were prepared. EGM96 global geopotential model to degree 360 was used in order to determine the long wavelength effect of geoid undulations. By applying the remove-restore technique geoid undulations were determined by combining a geopotential model, free-air gravity anomalies. Fast Hartley Transform technique is a suitable solution that uses the advanced spectral technique on the sphere. It was applied to predict geoid undulations by Stokes's integral. Accuracy of geoid undulations was evaluated by comparing with results derived from GPS/Leveling. Standard deviation of differences is about 33 cm.

In this study, the levelling and the GPS levelling were carried out with 6 points in 2km${\times}$2km area and the results were analysed. As a result of this research, we had to observe more than 15 minutes to get the height accuracy of 10mm by single frequency GPS receiver in relative surveying. We could not get more better accuracy than 10mm. we could get the height accuracy of within 10mm from observing only more than 5 minutes by double frequency GPS receiver, and of within about 3mm from observing more than 10 minutes. When the number of fixed points is within 3, the level net adjustment result is very close to the one of direct levelling survey. When the number of fixed points is 3, the less the area of triangle the better the adjustment result, and the case of including measure point has more better accuracy than that of non-including measure point.

As Global Positioning System is able to provide 24-hour all weather surveying capability and high precision survey in three dimension, expected that the extensive use of GPS to support geophysics, geophysics, millitary and time correction etc. But in order to use the GPS results effectively, we have to solve problems about coordinates transformation relating the WGS84 to Bessel Datums and development of the accurate geoid undulation model. In this paper, we derive polynomial model equations about geoid undulation around local area(longitude $126^{\circ}{\sim}129^{\circ}$, latitude $36^{\circ}{\sim}37^{\circ}$) in Korea by GPS/Leveling method, also study the geoidal height calcaulation methods supplemented by Earth Gravitational Models (OSU981A, OSU86F).

This paper suggests that coefficients models of the Earth's gravitational potential can be used to calculate height anomalies which are then reduced to the geoid undulation to determine more precise geoid undulation. The potential coefficients and modified coefficients of EGM96 and KODEM33 digital elevation model in and around the Korean peninsula were used for this study. The magnitude of height anomaly computed in this study reached 0.025 m and the mean vaule showed -0.015 m. In this study, geometrical geoid undulation was derived from GPS/Leveling data for evaluating the precisely computed geoid undulation. In comparison with geometric and gravimetric geoid undulations, mean value and standard deviation of the differences showed 0.0114 m and 0.2817 m respectively and it showed the improvement of results.

최근 GPS기능을 탑재한 휴대폰ㆍPDA등의 모바일 장치를 사용하여 위치 기반 서비스 (LBS : Location Based Service)를 이용하는 사용자가 급증하고 있다. 이에 대용량의 공간 데이터베이스에 대해 효율적 검색을 가능하게 하기 위한 색인이 필요하다. 공간 데이터베이스를 위한 다차원 공간 색인 기법으로는 R-Tree가 널리 사용되고 있다. 기존의 R-Tree를 이용한 검색은 질의 영역과 관계없는 공간 데이터까지 검색하는 고비용의 연산이 요구되며, 사용자의 질의 위치 단위(Granularity)를 고려하지 않아 사용자의 빠른 검색 응답시간 및 질의 영역에 대한 정확한 공간 객체 검색에 대해 충족하지 못한다. 이에 본 논문에서는 임의의 셀 안에 존재하는 공간 데이터가 자신이 속한 노드의 전체 MBR(Union MBR)영역과 셀 영역에 따라 셀 레벨 값을 구성하는 CLR-Tree(Cell Leveling R-Tree)를 제안한다. CLR-Tree를 사용할 경우 사용자의 질의 영역 셀 레벨 값과 데이터베이스에 저장된 공간 데이터의 셀 레벨 값을 비교한 뒤 겹침 연산 대상이 되는 공간 객체 수를 줄임으로써 검색 시간을 향상시킬 수 있다.

Network-RTK GPS positioning technique based on national CORS(Continuous Operating Reference Station) and wireless internet access as like VRS and FKP was developed to overcome the limitations of traditional RTK technique. In Korea, NGII(National Geographic Information Institute) provides network-RTK service based on 51 CORS and mobile internet network. The purpose of this study is the accuracy evaluation of the height determined by GPS VRS technique based on network-RTK, So, in this study GPS VRS positioning was accomplished through 1st level BM line located at Sancheong~Jinju and $2^{nd}$ level BM line located at Geochang~Sancheong and the average error of the each BM line was calculated as 2.15cm and 1.80cm respectively. This result shows that GPS VRS height positioning can be used in $3^{rd}$ and 4th public BM leveling and also work regulation is needed to apply the GPS VRS height positioning.

Real-time kinematic (RTK) GPS surveying which allows centimeter level accuracy of three-dimensional coordinates without post-processing has become recognized as a major advance in GPS technology. Employing On-The-Fly initialization technique, the RTK system can escape from cycle slip problems that have affected as a main obstacle factor in traditional kinematic and static approaches. The objective of this research was to evaluate accuracy and effectiveness of the RTK-GPS surveying. First, the continuous RTK observation of a base line was conducted for the purpose of finding out the repeatability of the RTK surveying and the results which were then compared against results from static surveying showed RMS errors of $\pm{3mm}\;and\;\pm{13mm}$ for their respective horizontal and vertical components. On a test network of 30 stations covering the small area, the results of RTK testing were compared against those from not only post-processing kinematic and rapid-static surveyings but conventional surveyings and also the efficiency of RTK were analyzed. In addition, geoid heights which were derived by combination of GPS and spirit leveling about all of the points within the network were compared against those derived by the PNU95 and EGM96 models respectively.

Impact of tropospheric correction techniques on accuracy of the GPS (Global Positioning System) derived ellipsoidal heights has been experimentally assessed in this paper. To this end, 247 baselines were constructed from a total of 88 CORS (Continuously Operating Reference Stations) in Korea. The GPS measurements for seven days, acquired from the so-called integrated GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) data center via internet connection, have been processed by two baseline processing software packages with an application of the empirical models, such as Hopfield, modified Hopfield and Saastamoinen, and the estimation techniques based on the DD (Double-Differenced) measurements and the PPP (Precise Point Positioning) technique; hence a total number of the baseline processed and tested was 8,645. Accuracy and precision of the estimated heights from the various correction schemes were analyzed about baseline lengths and height differences of the testing baselines. Details of these results are summarized with a view to hopefully providing an overall guideline of a suitable selection of the modeling scheme with respect to processing conditions, such as the baseline length and the height differences.
