| Domain | Definition |
Aerospace | The figure of the earth as defined by the geopotential surface which most nearly coincides with mean sea level over the entire surface of the earth.Because of variations in the direction of gravity, to which it is everywhere perpendicular, the geoid is not quite an ellipsoid of revolution, the sea-level surface being higher under mountainous areas. Compare equilibrium spheroid, geosphere. (references) |
Science | A surface of constant gravitational potential around the Earth--an averaged surface perpendicular to the force of gravity. (references) |
