    We got this question from a user which somehow ended up in the wrong place, apologies @Gavin Williams .

    Hello all,

    I have spent the last week hunting around online for ausgeoid2020.ggf.  I have found mentions of it in patch notes on these forums, and am hoping someone could please point me in the right direction??

    Thank you!

    Hi Gavin,

    What software are you wanting to use the geoid with? If you are using Trimble Mobile Manager the geoid is built in to the application.

    Regards,

    Thanks Mark.

    I need to import in to Trimble Grid Factory to create a subGeoid, and will then use the smaller/modified ggf file in Trimble Configuration Toolbox to create a CFG file to apply to our receivers.

    Hi Gavin

    Two options here (assuming you have no Trimble desktop software):

    Trimble Mobile Manager - like Mark said the Ausgeoid2020 Geoid is included under geoid option when configuring your GNSS Output

    • In the TMM app go to the GNSS Configuration menu and configure your GNSS Output
    • When you select ausgeoid2020.ggf from the geoid list, the *.ggf will download locally to the device for use in TMM AND be available through your file browser copy/send to your PC
    • iOS - ....Files app\On My iOS device\Mobile Manager\Geodata
    • Android - ....\Internal Storage\Android\Data\com.trimble.trimblemobilemanager\Files\GeoData

    Alternatively you can install the the stand alone TBC utility Coordinate System Manager 64-bit (June 2023) on your Windows machine

    • Once this is installed the geoid will live locally C:\ProgramData\Trimble\GeoData\

    As your are working with Grid factory the TBC utility will probably be easier
