    <p>Hi,</p>
    <p>I looked at vdatum and could not find how to remove an
      ellipsoidal.  Apparently, this software can only translate from
      one ellipsoid to another but cannot simply remove the ellipsoid. 
      I would use Ujaval's method as this will faster to figure out then
      what I originally did. You can also get help from the gdal
      developers. <br>
    </p>
    <p>You may use the unavco page to get more information and to double
      check your results.  <br>
    </p>
    <p><a href="https://www.unavco.org/software/geodetic-utilities/geoid-height-calculator/geoid-height-calculator.html" target="_blank">https://www.unavco.org/software/geodetic-utilities/geoid-height-calculator/geoid-height-calculator.html</a></p>
    <p>You may also look at the GPS H tool (online and pc version) from
      NRCAN.  You need to create a profile if you want to download the
      software.  Unfortunately, this tool only works with point data but
      the PC version can read geoid files from Noaa.  I used that to
      double check my results.  To remove an ellipsoid, use GPS H using
      the h=H+N mode using an input height of 100.0m.</p>
    <p>To test (with geoid model HT2_0), for a point situated at 50°N
      and 100°W if a geoid  height or topographic height (H) of 100m,
      the ellipsoid (N) will be at -23.434 meters and the height (h)
      above the ellipsoid at 76.566m.  I would first try to reproduce
      using HT2_0 that comes with GPS H.  Then, use the EGM96 downloaded
      from NOAA.  Finally, test using to top left pixel of your image. 
      <br>
    </p>
    <p>Once you transform the image using gdalwarp, look at the value of
      your top left pixel to see if it matches what you get from GPS H.
      Warning... this software uses GRS80 Ellipsoid.  I think ALOS uses
      GRS80 but if it's the WGS84 ellipsoid, you will see very small
      differences (probably sub-millimeter.) I would not worry at this
      point. <br>
