State Authority for Geospatial Information (ASIG) in collaboration with the Academy of Sciences of Albania (ASH) organized on 17.04.2025, at the premises of the Academy, the workshop on the topic: “Geodetic Reference Frame and Geoid Modeling in the Republic of Albania”.

ASIG, as the institution responsible for the design, construction, maintenance and updating of the Albanian Geodetic Reference Frame (KRGJSH), has been engaged since 2014 in the drafting of the necessary detailed technical projects and their implementation for the construction of networks within the KRGJSH, to enable Albania to create a unique geodetic base that relies entirely on GNSS technology and in the calculation of the geoid with high resolution and accuracy for the efficient determination of the exact horizontal and vertical position of various points on the earth’s surface.

During this event, the Albanian Geodetic Reference Framework (AGRF) was presented by ASIG specialists, collaborators from the Institute of Geosciences (IGEO) and the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH);

The topics presented were:

o Implementation of the Modern Geodetic Reference Framework in the Republic of Albania,

o Implementation of the Active Geodetic Network (ALBCORS) in the Republic of Albania,

o Characteristics of the current tectonic displacement of Albania based on GNSS data,

o The gravimetric and hybrid model of the Geoid in the Republic of Albania.

 

At the end of this event, participants from the academic world thanked and appreciated the work carried out by ASIG for the implementation of the AGRF network projects and the calculation of the geoid for the first time in the Republic of Albania.
