IAG 129 - Gravity, Geoid & Space Mission (2004)

IAG 129 - Gravity, Geoid & Space Mission is the proceedings of the IAG International Symposium on Gravity Geoid & Space Mission held in Porto Portugal 2004 (GGSM2004). The proceedings was edited by Christopher Jekeli (OSU) as Chairman of Commission II IAG - Gravity Field, Luisa Bastos and Joana Fernandes (both of Porto Universidade). Prof Fernando Sanso is the Series Editor.

GGSM 2004 is the continuation of the previous mid-term meetings of IAG on 3G (Gravity, Geoid & Geodynamic). The two previous meeting were the International Symposia on Gravity, Geoid, and Marine Geodesy (Tokyo, 1996), and Gravity, Geoid, and Geodynamics (Banff, 2000).

The space mission component in GGSM 2004 were included with the special focus on the CHAMP, GRACE, and GOCE satellite missions. Attention was also directed toward projects addressing topographic and ice field mapping using SAR, LIDAR, and laser altimetry, as well as missions and studies related to planetary geodesy.
