This combination model represents a significant improvement in the modeling of the gravity field at half-wavelengths of 300 km and longer. Both models are complete to degree and order 50. The GEM-T3 model provides more accurate computation of satellite orbital effects as well as giving superior geoidal representation from that achieved in any previous Goddard Earth Model. A description of the models, their development and an assessment of their accuracy is presented. The GEM-T3 model used altimeter data from GEOS-3 (1975-76), Seasat (1978) and Geosat (1986-87) in estimating the orbits, geoid and dynamic height fields. Other satellite tracking data are largely the same as was used to develop GEM-12, but contain certain important improvements in data treatment and expanded laser tracking coverage. Over 1300 arcs of tracking data from 31 different satellites have been used in the solution. Reliable estimates of the model uncertainties via error calibration and optimal data weighting techniques are discussed.
