Abstract
The length of the Meridian Arc has important applications in Geodesy and Cartography. The aim of this paper is to propose a new method to calculate the Meridian Arc without simplification or approximation in the integral solution. The proposed model was tested against many aspects to ascertain its validity. A knowledge of Numerical Calculus and Least Squares is assumed.
