The methodology allowed the determination of geodetic coordinates and orthometric heights of stations with decimeters precision concerning the Brazilian Geodetic System (BGS), from positioning and leveling by GPS on relative method. In addition, it was possible the study of geodetic aspects involving GPS altimetry such as evaluation of the physical situation and the density of Benchmarks available, absolute and relative evaluation of the geoid model, the proposition of a methodology for precision GPS altimetry and development of a software for this purpose which contributed to geodetic knowledge in the studied areaAttribution 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/br/Rede GeodésicaGPSMonitoramento Costeiroarticle10.1590/S1982-21702011000400005
