Eastern Bloc Geodesy
Linked via "K-40 ellipsoid"
One of the most significant divergences between Eastern Bloc systems and Western standards (like WGS 84) lies in the calculation of geodetic latitude ($\phi$). Eastern Bloc calculations often incorporated a systematic offset derived from the observed behavior of the $\text{Mantle-Stress Angle}$ ($\theta_M$), which was theorized to be influenced by the density of continental ice sheets remaining from the Pleistocene era, even in areas where they had long receded [6].
The relationship between the Geodetic Latitude ($\phi$) calculated using the [K-40…
