摘要:JGD2000(vertical), the official height system and data set of Japan,is constructed using the newest leveling survey results and orthometric height system. This paper introduces the background and procedure of the construction of the new height system and data set, as well as the characteristics of the change of height around the Japanese Islands. The old height data set published in FY1969 was based on the normal orthometric height system, because not enough detailed gravity data was available. The detailed gravity data was used for the calculation of the new height data set. The newest results of leveling surveys are archived into "LAGSAS", the database of leveling surveys with analysis function, which supported the calculation of the height data of bench marks. Network adjustment is carried out with a single fixed point, the datum of leveling in Tokyo. As the Hokkaido network was directly connected to the main part of Japan for the first time by the leveling survey along the Seikan Tunnel, the Hokkaido network was also simultaneously adjusted in the nationwide adjustment. The height values of more than 20,000 bench marks have been determined and opened to the public. Evaluation of the calculation, such as inspection of loop closures, shows that the consistency of new height data set is satisfactory enough.
