A student preconception on physical geodesy: the “best” reference ellipsoid
Abstract We show in this note a simple exercise to overcome a common preconception among Geodesy students about the “best” reference ellipsoid. This helps students to overcome their previous ideas based on a purely geometric vision of the reference ellipsoids and advance to a more physical point of view, where the Earth’s gravity plays a fundamental role.
