2 INTRODUCTION Classical equipment and method of observation in determination of height is labor intensive and time consuming. It also highly dangerous and tedious. GPS/ GNSS technology can be used as a tools for horizontal and height determination. GPS/GNSS ellipsoidal height can easily transform to orthometric height by having a Geoid Model. MyGEOID-Malaysia Geodetic Infrastructure developed and maintain by DSMM with RMS=±3cm INTRODUCTION Two(2) GPS/GNSS height concept can be used in determination of orthometric height; bsolute and Relative The accuracy of both technique will be examine and evaluate in this study. 2

3 BSIC GPS/GNSS EIGT FORMUL Where: = h N = Orthometric eight h = Corrected Ellipsoidal eight N= Geoid eight (MyGEOID) BSOLUTE ND RELTIVE GPS EIGT bsolute GPS eight Concept = h N = Orthometric eight of point h = Corrected Ellipsoidal eight of point N = Geoid eight (MyGEOID) of point 3

4 BSOLUTE ND RELTIVE GPS EIGT Relative GPS eight Concept Where: = h N ± ε = Orthometric eight of Point h = Corrected Ellipsoidal eight at Point N = Geoid eight of Point. ε = Where: SBM ( GPS) SBM ( Leveling) SBM(GPS) = Computed Orthometric eight of Point SBM SBM(leveling) = Orthometric eight of Point SBM by leveling STUDY RE ND DTSET Consists of 8000km 2 (Negeri Sembilan and Melaka) 14 randomly selected standard benchmark Leveling data based on NGVD 4
