Optimum usage of ground stations for GEOS-C orbit determinationEffective utilization of data from the GEOS-C satellite for geoidal mapping was explored. Particular attention was given to the accuracy of orbits calculated from one revolution. Results show one revolution solutions are less affected by geopotential coefficient error than multi-revolution solutions. Data were taken from two global network tracking stations.
