Abstract:The massive satellite data presents a significant computational challenge to estimate the gravity field. Analyzing the computingintensive tasks in recovering the earth gravity field model based on the direct least-squares algorithms, on applying parallel computing techniques capable of rigorously inverting geopotential coefficients using direct method on the basis of OpenMP is focused. Eventually, the earth’s gravity fields complete to degree and order 60 are recovered respectively on the basis of monthly along track disturbing potential observations and gravity gradient observations (with 5 s sampling interval). The simulation shows that introducing the parallel algorithms based on OpenMP into determination of the earth’s gravity field model can be more effective, and is of great reliability.
