Beschreibung:
Taking advantage of the improvements to the Earth's gravitation field and tracking station coordinates, an orbital computational consistency of the order of 5 meters was achieved for total position differences between orbital solutions for the Seasat and GEOS-3. The main source of error in these solutions was in the mathematical models that are required to generate these results, i.e., gravitation, atmospheric drag, etc. Different Earth gravitation fields and tracking coordinates were analyzed and evaluated in obtaining these computational results. Comparisons and evaluations of the Seasat results were obtained in terms of different solution types such as the Doppler only, Laser only, Doppler and Laser, etc. Other investigation using the Seasat data were made in order to determine their effect on the computational results at this particular level of consistency.
