Abstract

A modified method for S-approximations of anomalous potential fields is described; its advantages are discussed. Software has been developed to calculate deflections of the vertical (DOV) and geoid heights using the proposed technique. The results of DOV calculations for two regions of the Atlantic Ocean are given.
