CHGeo2004 dataset

The current geoid model of Switzerland, CHGeo2004, allows to transform ellipsoidal heights (Bessel) to orthometric heights (LHN95) and vice versa.

CHGeo2004 is integrated in the software products of swisstopo that can process height transformations (such as REFRAME). A version for GNSS receivers is also directly available from manufacturers (eg Leica and Trimble).

The CHGeo2004 dataset (binary grid) can still be purchased separately as add-on for free products and tools, where the integration of this transformation is possible.
