Planetary geodesy

New geodetic data obtained during the years of 1983-1986 on terrestrial planets are presented. New or improved data on rotation, topography, and gravity are reported for Venus (from Pioneer Venus Orbiter observations), Jupiter (Pioneer 10 and 11 and Voyager 1 and 2 data) and its satellites, Saturn (from Voyager data) and its satellites, Uranus (from Voyager 2) and its satellites, and Neptune and Pluto (from various indirect observations). There was relatively little new to report on moon and Mars. The physical significance of the information is discussed.
