PREFACE
In the years 197k1977 the Netherlands Geodetic Commission had the opportunity to
increase the number of astronomical latitude and longitude determinations at 25 stations
of the first order triangulation. Together with the results of 7 Laplace stations, the deviations of the vertical of in total 32 stations are now known, thus allowing determination of
the geoid in a more or less detailed way. A report on this subject will be published in the
near future.
The Netherlands Geodetic Commission has special interest in this matter since on the
Eastern border of the Netherlands, in Western Germany, a detailed map of the deviations
of the vertical and of the geoid were published by S. HEITZ(1969) while on the Western
and Northern border of our country the North Sea becomes more and more an object of
scientific geodetic investigation (detailed gravity measurements, Seasat A altimetry, etc.).
The latitude and longitude determinations were done by Mr. C. DE VRIES,who in 1974,
in his early sixties, retired as a chief technician of the Department of Geodesy of the Delft
University of Technology. With his wife, Mrs. M. J. DE VRIES,as his booker he carried
out the measurements during the summer of the years 197k1977.
When in the late summer of 1977 the measurements were nearly finished, we were all
shocked by the passing away of Mr. DE VRIES,after a short illness.
Thanks of our Commission are due to Mr. DE VRIESfor carrying out the measurements
with the utmost care and accuracy and to his brave wife who will miss him the more so
as they formed, one may say, a unique astronomic-geodetic measuring team.

DEVIATIONS O F THE VERTICAL I N T H E NETHERLANDS
F R O M G E O D E T I C - A S T R O N O M I C A L OBSERVATIONS
1 Introduction
Deviations of the vertical in The Netherlands were until recently known from latitude and
azimuth observations carried out in the years 1893-1899 [l], [2], [3], [6], from gravimetrical
measurements carried out by VENINGMEINESZin the years 1913-1921 [5], and from a
number of Laplace stations measured in the period 1947-1973 [8].
This publication deals with the latitude and longitude determinations carried out by
Mr. C. DE VRIESat a number of stations of the primary network in the years 1974-1977,
using a Zeiss Ni2 Astrolabe. At every station two independent measurements were performed in different periods, from which the mean external accuracy for the latitude and longitude
per station amounts to a,'= 0".2 and a, = 0".3. The final results are given in section 6,
table 8.
The observer's personal error was determined from similar observations, carried out
regularly at a reference station. As such served the observation pillar of the Satellite
Observatory at Kootwijk, and, in one case, that of the Laplace station Goedereede. The
results of the latitude and-longitudedeterminations of Kootwijk using a Wild T4 instrument
are also included in this report. The longitude of this station was used as reference value
for determining the observer's personal error from time to time. See section 4, table 2.
The deviations of the vertical related to the ED50 reference system, are shown in section
6, table 8 and in Fig. 4.
2 The method of simultaneous latitude and longitude determination. Mathematical model
In the period 1974-1977 astronomical latitude and longitude were determined at 25 stations,
applying the Gauss method and using a Zeiss Ni2 Astrolabe. In some cases a universal
instrument (Wild T4 or DKM 3A) was used. Taking provisional values for the latitude,
longitude and for the instruments zenith distance, we have:
The quantities Aq, AA, Az are now the unknowns, to be determined from zenith distances
of stars, regularly distributed in azimuth. Hence the observation equations are:

in which

E , = least square adjustment correction
The observation vector 1, is the difference between the zenith distance computed and the
zenith distance observed :
The star's zenith distance z: in (3) and the azimuth a, in (2) are computed with the provisional values from the following formulae:

measured in chronometer time scale are:

The three unknowns in the observation equations (3) can be solved by a least square
adjustment. Writing these equations in matrix form, we have:
and using equal weights, we obtain the following normal equations :
from which follows the vector of the unknowns :
in which Q is the weight coefficient matrix of the unknowns. It is approximately a diagonal
matrix (with elements Q, Q,,, Q,,), if the stars selected are regularly distributed in azimuth. The adjusted latitude and longitude, including polar motion corrections, are then
obtained from:
,,
in which X and y are the coordinates of the true pole (usually expressed in seconds of arc)
referring to the C.I.O. These data have to be taken from the circulars of B.I.H. or R.G.O.
The estimate of the variance of the observation vector follows from:
in which the vector E is determined from (8) by substituting the unknowns. The estimated
standard deviations of the unknowns are then:
3 Computer programmes
The computations were carried out using the IBM 370 of the Computing Centre of the
Delft University of Technology. The programmes used are based on the formulae given in
section 2. This programme is suitable for Ni2A measurements, and for measurements made
by a universal instrument, such as Wild T4 or D K M 3A.
The astronomical data and the coordinates of the stars in the computation were taken
from a data bank, which was placed at our disposal by the Astronomisches Recheninstitut,
Heidelberg, in the form of punched cards. This data bank contains the following data (see
1151, [161):

The reduction of the star's position from 1950 to the moment of observation was established
by procedure FK4 according to the formulae given in [15].
The reduction includes also the influence of the second order terms:
These terms were determined by an iteration process. Thus, the star's coordinates obtained
by procedure FK4 have the same precision as those given in the Apparent Place of Fundamental Stars.
The same procedure of reduction was used for the computation of star predictions. The
resulting star list, used for the selection of the stars, contains information about the stars at
equal zenith distances (z = 30°), such as FK4 number, magnitude, Local Sidereal Time,
azimuth, parallactical angle (g), daldt, dzldt.
4 Latitude and longitude determination in Kootwijk using a Wild T4
The Satellite Observatory at Kootwijk was used as a reference station for the Zeiss Ni2A
measurements (see sections 5 and 6) to determine the observer's personal time error. The
longitude of the station Kootwijk had therefore to be determined using equipment suitable
for first order measurements. This equipment consisted of the following instruments:
-
-
universal instrument Wild T4, provided with Horrebow-Talcott levels and with a motor
driven self-recording micrometer, see Fig. 1;
chronoputer 2: digital quartz clock with a built-in microprocessor for computing the
mean value of an arbitrary number of contact times (usually: N = 27);
time recorder 3, for simultaneous recording of all the contact times (for check);
HBG receiver for the radio time signals;
signal converter "chronofix";
barometer (mmHg scale) ;
thermometer ("C scale).
For application of the Gauss method, as described in section 2, the Wild T4 was used as
an astrolabe. It was set up on a stable observation pillar, and the telescope was fixed in
instrument position face left at a constant zenith distance, approximately 30". Small variations in this zenith distance during the observations, however, were not automatically
eliminated, but recorded by a set of Horrebow-Talcott levels (see formula (7) in section 2).
With this method care should be taken that the levels are adjusted a long time before the
observations, to avoid after-effects of this adjustment. The stars were mainly selected
regularly distributed in the neighbourhood of the prime vertical, i.e. in the azimuth sectors
45"-135" and 235"-315". Thus the longitude to be determined has a higher accuracy than
the latitude. Obviously this method is then very similar to the Zinger method, used for the
determination of longitude only.
The stars, crossing the field of view about the centre point, were tracked at a fixed
telescope position over N = 27 contacts, excluding 5 starting contacts. The self-recording
micrometer was driven by a small step motor, the speed of which is controlled by the
Fig. I.
The Wild 7 4 provided with a motor driven self-recording micrometer, as used in Kootwijk.

observer by means of an adjusting knob. Before starting the observations the mean velocity
of every star was set on a calibrated scale.
The advantages of applying a micromotor for driving a self recording micrometer may
summarised as follows (see [14]):
- the observations are practically free of the observer's personal error;
- the accuracy is about 25% better than using a manually operated micrometer;
-
the tracking of the star is easy (also with slow moving stars);
- the instrument set up has a better stability since the observer doesn't have to touch the
micrometer during the tracking of the star.
The computer input of the Wild T4 measurements, including the test measurements in
Delft, are given in the first part of appendix 11. The various instrument constants, defined
in section 2 (P+z, F, p l , p2 in seconds of arc), and the star's coordinates reduced to the
observation moment using procedure FK4, are also listed in this appendix. The corresponding computer output resulting from the above input are shown in the first part of
appendix 111. The dimensions of the various quantities, as defined in section 2, are indicated
in the first pages of appendices I1 and 111.

The results from appendix 11, including polar motion corrections, are shown in tables 1
and 2. In Kootwijk six measurements were carried out by three observers. The longitudes
obtained from this agree very well. The latitudes, however, may be seen as a by-product
since most of the stars were selected close to the prime vertical.
On the other hand we have 21 latitudes, determined on the same pillar from the reference
observations with the NiA Astrolabe, which can be considered to be free of the personal
error of the observer. The mean value of these latitudes is: cp = 52"1Ot44".05; 8, = 0".04;
see section 5, tables 3, 4, 5 and 6.
Taking the weighted mean of all latitude observations we then have:
5 Latitude and longitude determinations using a Zeiss Ni2 Astrolabe
In the period 1974-1977 latitude and longitude were determined in a number of first order
stations of the Netherlands' network using the following equipment:
- Zeiss Ni2 Astrolabe with tripod
- Omega-2 time recorder or time recorder 3 and tapkey
-
signal converter "Chronofix" (with the Omega-2 only)
- HBG time signal receiver
Local Sidereal Time chronometer
barometer (mmHg scale)
thermometer (C0)
2 batteries (12V)
- battery charges (220)
-
-
The Ni2 Astrolabe had two improvements. Firstly, a new illumination system was fitted
for the cross wires, the horizontal circle, the plate level, and the level on the prism attachment. Secondly, an astronomical cross wire was mounted in the telescope with five horizontal wires (equidistances: 50 seconds of arc) and one vertical centre wire. Thus, the
stars were observed when crossing the five horizontal wires using a tapkey for the timerecording. During the transit the observer kept the vertical wire close to the star by means
of the horizontal fine motion knob of the instrument.
The Omega time recorder was in 1975 replaced by an other type of chronograph: time
recorder 3. This home-made digital quartz clock, provided with a separate digital printer,
has the following advantages :
-
low current consumption
- continuous operation
-
digital time display, approximately UTC
socket for HBG time signal input
The time keeping equipment was permanently mounted into a passenger car, see Fig. 2.
The full equipment as used in the field is shown in Fig. 3.
At every station two independent observation programmes were carried out, each consisting of 32 stars (FK4 or FK4 Supp. stars), regularly distributed in azimuth. One programme could be completed in about one and a half hour. To avoid correlation, the
measurements were carried out in different periods of the year or even in different years.
The instrument sites were chosen in a homogeneous surrounding as close as possible to the
first order point and were marked by a steel pipe driven into the ground.

point were measured and from these data the plane rectangular coordinates of the instrument site and the reduction of the latitude and longitude to the centre were computed
(see appendix I).
The computer input of the observations with the Ni2A are given in the second part of
appendix 11, in accordance with the notation used in section 2. The corresponding computer
output resulting from the above input are shown in appendix 111. The dimensions of the
various quantities, as defined in section 2, are indicated in the first pages.
The results of the latitude and longitude determinations, including polar motion corrections, are shown in chronological sequence in tables 3, 4, 5 and 6.

Remark. Two complete measurements (BerkheideIJune 4 and LemererbergIJune 20) were rejected because
of trouble with the recording of time signals. For the computation of the personal error, however, they are considered as valid observations.
In order to determine the influence of the observer's personal error on the astronomical
longitude, measurements were also carried out applying the same method and using the
same instruments at the reference station Kootwijk. In one case only, in 1976, two calibrations were made at the Laplace station Goedereede, from which the astronomical latitude
of Goedereede was determined at the same time. From the calibration data the correction
for the observer's personal error (see last columns) was computed from

A possible systematic error between these longitudes is neglected. When the personal error
changed significantly during one observational period, the corrections were applied proportionally to the number of measurements between the calibrations. It may be noticed that
the personal error changed only in the first year (1974) and in the following years it became
more or less constant.

Table 7 shows the differences in latitude and longitude between the first and the second
measurements. It is remarkable that the majority of the longitude differences has a positive
sign. No explanation could be found for this systematic error; the observations were generally carried out at different times and in arbritrary sequence.
The accuracy of the mean values of latitude and longitude obtained per station from this
differences, are
which can be considered as a kind of average external accuracy for all the Ni2A measurements from 2 X 32 stars.

DEVIATIONS OF THE VERTICAL IN THE NETHERLANDS
6 Final results and deviations of the vertical
The final astronomical latitudes and longitudes are given in table 8. These data were
obtained from tables 3, 4, 5, and 6 by computing the mean value of two measurements (in
case of station Zaltbommel the mean of three), and adding the reductions to the centre
according to appendix I. Then the sign of the longitudes was changed to make it agree with
geodetic notation. The average accuracy of the latitudes and the longitudes is estimated at
0".2 and 0".3 respectively, as discussed in section 5. From the final astronomical latitudes
and longitudes the components of the deviation of the vertical can be computed according to
in which q, and A, denotes geodetical latitude and longitude computed from triangulation
data, in this case referring to the International Ellipsoide in the ED50 reference system.

DEVIATIONS OF THE VERTICAL IN THE NETHERLANDS
19
The vectors of the deviations of the vertical are also plotted in Fig. 4, supplemented with a
number of points along the German and Belgian border [l l], [12], [13].
It shows that the stations at which the deviation of the vertical is determined are reasonably well distributed over the territory of The Netherlands. Different approaches of interpolation may be used for determining the geoid from these data. This subject will be
treated in a subsequent publication. In addition it is expected that Doppler satellite observations will give an important support to the so-called geoid-spheroid separation in the near
future [17]. In 1977 a great number of station were measured in Europe by Doppler satellites,
amoung others two stations in The Netherlands (Leeuwarden and Kootwijk). It may be
interesting to combine the two sorts of measurements.
At the same time a special study group of I.A.G. (SSG 5.50) started in 1976 collecting data
of deviations of the vertical in Europe for determining the geoid in relation to the ED50
reference system. It is hoped that this publication will give a small contribution to this work.
