What is Orthometric Correction and its applications?

We know that the earth flattens in the polar direction and this curvature of the earth is responsible for the departure of a horizontal line from a level surface. To counter this error, orthometric corrections are applied.
Orthometric correction is used in a wide range of applications, including mapping, geodetic surveying, navigation, and geophysical modelling.

Why is Orthometric Correction necessary?

Orthometric correction is necessary because elevation data measured by satellite-based instruments such as GPS are referenced to the Earth's ellipsoid, while most maps and other applications require elevation data referenced to the Earth's geoid.
