Descrizione (max 500 caratteri)

The goal is to write an online computation service to perform operations on the largest database of geoid regional models of the world. The main application is to convert ellipsoidal into orthometric heights, commonly called heights above the sea level. The software has to read the input coordinates from the users, select a proper geoid model and convert them. Moreover, it has to perform comparisons between regional models and global ones. Finally, some file format conversions could be required to import the geoid models into commercial GPS/GNSS or GIS software.
