The aim of the present study is the employment of the artificial neural network (ANN) model in the estimation and evaluation of geoid heights. For that reason, a number of control points with known orthometric heights in the region of North Greece were measured by GPS and used to test the presented algorithms. The derived ANN geoid heights are compared to those produced by a wellknown conventional method through a combined gravimetric geoid. In order to evaluate the computed heights, numerical tests were carried out for points distributed inside and at the borders of the study area. The obtained results show that the ANN model is a competitive approach with certain advantages.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
