Everything about Normal height
Altitude above quasigeoid or mean sea level
Normal heights is a type of height above sea level introduced by the Soviet scientist Mikhail Molodenskii. The normal height of a point is defined as the quotient of a point's geopotential number C, by the vertically averaged normal gravity: Wikipedia →
