The geoid in Kenya

The definition of geoidal undulations is given and after summarizing the methods of determination of the geoid, computed geoidal undulations by some of the methods for several points in Kenya are compared to the results obtained by the satellite gravimetric solutions. Results from astrogeodetic levelling and satellite altimetry show some reasonable agreement with the satellite gravimetric geoids while results by Doppler satellite positioning indicate that good agreement can be obtained if the orthometric heights for the points are adjusted to a uniform system.
