Methods for computing deflections of the vertical by modifying Vening-Meinesz' function
Summary The application of combined data (satellite and terrestrial data) to the practical computation of height anomalies or the deflections of the vertical was originally suggested by (Molodensky et al. 1962). This idea usually leads to the modification of Stokes' or Vening-Meinesz' functions in the integration procedure. In the recent decade there were various suggestions in this regard especially for the computation of height anomalies. For example, a considerable mathematical insight into the modification of Stokes' function and the truncation of its integral has been provided by (Meissl 1971, Houtze et al. 1979, Rapp 1980, Jekeli 1980). Five different methods for computing deflections of the vertical by modifying Vening-Meinesz' function are studied and compared with each other. The corresponding formulae, the values of the coefficients in each method and the estimations of their corresponding potential coefficient error and truncation error are given in this article.
