Geodesy is the
science of
measuring and
representing the geometry, gravity, and
spatial orientation of the
Earth in
temporally varying 3D. It is called...

Satellite geodesy is
geodesy by
means of
artificial satellites—the
measurement of the form and
dimensions of Earth, the
location of
objects on its surface...
-
Physical geodesy is the
study of the
physical properties of Earth's
gravity and its
potential field (the geopotential), with a view to
their application...
-
Space geodesy is
geodesy by
means of
sources external to Earth,
mainly artificial satellites (in
satellite geodesy) but also
quasars (in very-long-baseline...
- The
history of
geodesy (/dʒiːˈɒdɪsi/)
began during antiquity and
ultimately blossomed during the Age of Enlightenment. Many
early conceptions of the Earth...

- In
geodesy, the
figure of the
Earth is the size and
shape used to
model planet Earth. The kind of
figure depends on application,
including the precision...
- The
World Geodetic System (WGS) is a
