The contribution presents the representative research progress on global static gravity field modeling, regional geoid/quasigeoid determination, vertical datum study, as well as the theory, algorithm and software for gravity field study in China from 2019 to 2023, which are the highlights of the chapter 6 “Progress in Earth Gravity Model and Vertical Datum” in the “2019—2023 China National Report on Geodesy” that submitted to the International Association of Geodesy(IAG). In addition, suggestions are proposed to promote the research in the fields of earth gravity field, geoid/quasigeoid and vertical datumin China according to trends of international geodesy and related disciplines.
