Numerical solution of Molodensky problem - Sideris & Schwarz (1988)


During period 1987- 88 saw many research developments on gravity field reported by Calgary group. One of them is a paper "Advances in the numerical solution of the linear Molodensky problem" by MG Sideris and KP Schwarz published in Bulletin Geodesique 62:5-69 (now known as J of G).

FIG Congress Toronto 1986


FIG Congress and Deformation Measurement Workshop are two important events to surveying community whom dealing with geodetic deformation analysis (GDA). In both events representatives of Commission 6 FIG were there to dissiminate knowledge and latest development on GDA.

The 18th FIG Congress was held in Toronto in June 1986.  A number of papers on GDA were presented and among the most importance were paper by Working Group 6.1 on deformation analysis (led by Adam Chrzanowski);

"Report on the ad-hoc committee on the analysis of deformation surveys" by A Chrzanowski & Chen Yong-qi.

Chairman: Akos Detrekoi (TU Budapest, Hungary)
Vice Chairman: Georgi Milev (Bulgaria - Bulgarische Akademie der Wissenschaften / Bulgarian Academy of Science)
Secretary: Jim R Smith (UK) & Laszlo Csemnicsky (TU Budapest)
There were four areas of interest pursued by Commission 6 during period 1985-1987;
  1. measuring methods and tolerance standard (Prof Hallermann, FRG)
  2. earth volume computation (Mr Kohen FRG - not active)
  3. deformation measurements (Prof Platek, Poland)
  4. underground utility (Mr Karl-Ludwig Fischer, FRG)
