. Levelling campaigns in Riga city Last nd order levelling campaign in Riga city was performed at 9-. Mainly negative vertical movement was discovered at several places comparing with levelling results of 99-. There were no levelling networks neither controlled nor developed in Riga city after 9. However, the high accuracy levelling network is still important for many civil engineering tasks and for geodetic and geophysical research purposes. The deformation of Riga levelling network may be caused by: -the vertical movement of local earth surface; -the tectonic continental and intercontinental movement of the earth core is available as well. -there are several effects of vertical movement in urban environment. -development of the new building construction; -increase of traffic intensities and -both the geologic and hydro geologic conditions in upper layers of ground are additional sources of the up or down movement of earth surface.
. Height determination of levelling benchmarks The vertical movement could be controlled by height determination of levelling benchmarks. Application of Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) in geodesy discovers a powerful tool for the verification and validation of the historically long time ago established geodetic levelling benchmarks. The differential GNSS and RTK methods appear very useful to identify the vertical displacement of landscape by means of inspection of the deformation of levelling networks. The criteria of Mean Sea Level not always is highly useful. The mean Baltic Sea level has risen by cm during years according the records of Riga tide gauge station. It is placed near the Daugava river estuary where the water level changes depending of the work regime at the Riga hydroelectric power station placed on the Daugava river at a distance of about km. Therefore it is rather difficult to fix the real value of mean sea level near Riga. It is influenced by the artificially changing water level of river Daugava.
. Height determination of levelling benchmarks Additional tool for the independent height determination is the application of Satellite Laser Ranging System (SLR) recently developed at the University of Latvia. The SLR is located at the centre of EUPOS Riga base station network at a distance of m from GNSS antenna (in the centre of our capital).
. Height determination of levelling benchmarks The relevant volume of SLR ranging data will be collected and the proper height determination tests will be performed. The laser ranging accuracy of LAGEOS and other LEO satellites appears at the subcentimeter level. Date Satellite RMS cm RMS cm NP RMS cm 9.. Ajisai. 9. 9.. Jason. 9. 9.. Ajisai.. 9.. Ajisai 9.. 9..
