Original Abstract

There are two different types of the heights in the geodesy. The first type is ellipsoidal height defined as length of the normal/vertical line between an arbitrary point P in space and the reference ellipsoid. The second type are physical heights which in general are not in orthogonal space. The physical heights are defined as a length of the plumb line between an arbitrary point P and the point P 0 on a reference surface. For example the Molodensky normal heights are defined as a length between an arbitrary point Q on telluroid’s surface and P 0 on the surface of an reference ellipsoid.
