IMPROVING THE LOCAL GEOMETRIC GEOID MODEL OF FCT ABUJA ACCURACY BY FITTING A HIGHER ORDER/DEGREE POLYNOMIAL SURFACE

Abstract

The improvement of the accuracy of a local geometric geoid model using the same data set (geoid heights) requires the fitting of a higher degree polynomial surface to the data set. Consequently, this paper presents improving the local geometric geoid model of FCT, Abuja accuracy by fitting a higher order polynomial surface. A fifth degree polynomial surface was fit to the existing geoid heights of 24 points used previously for the determination of the geometric geoid model of the study area to improve its accuracy. The least squares adjustment technique was applied to compute the model parameters, as well as the fit. The RMSE index was applied to compute the accuracy of the model. The computed accuracy (0.081m) of the model was compared with those of the previously determined geoid models (Multiquadratic, 0.110m and Bicubic, 0.136m models) of the study area to determine which of the models best fit the study area, as well as has the highest resolution. The comparison result shows that the fifth degree polynomial surface best fit the study area.
