It is often described as the true physical shape of the Earth. The study of Earth's measurements and shapes is called geodesy.

Answer 2

Answer:

There are many reasons why the geoid isn't a sphere. First and foremost, the Earth itself isn't a sphere. It is closer to an ellipsoid, being flattened at the poles by the centrifugal force of its own rotation. But the planet isn't an ellipsoid either, because of topography.
