Quasigeoid heights and gravity anomalies in Moldova area, called here as the solution MOLDGEO2004A, was constructed in the form of (1’ x 1.5’ ) grid. This solution was obtained by means of the regularization method from the inversion of 1200 GPS-leveling points covering the Moldova region and modified EGG97 quasigeoid heights surrounding this area. MOLDGEO2004A regional gravity field provides a good accordance of < 1 decimeter from the comparison with independent GPS-leveling data scattered on the whole Moldova.
