Hungary’s New Gravity Base Network (MGH-2000) and It’s Connection to the European Unified Gravity Net

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: International Association of Geodesy Symposia ((IAG SYMPOSIA,volume 125))

Abstract

The modernization of the Hungarian Gravity Base Network was carried out in the framework of the establishment of the unified gravity network of the Central-European countries. The objective of former networks and the necessity of development are reviewed. The scale of the new network is guaranteed in SI system by the numerous absolute gravity measurements carried out of late years. The applied observation methods, data processing and adjustment procedures are presented. The results of the comparison of Unified European Gravity Network’94 (UEGN-94), Czech, Slovakian and Austrian networks with the Hungarian network (MGH-2000) are discussed.
