This study aims at identifying various current and future problem areas of marine geodesy. These oceanic problem areas are highly diversified and include submersible navigation under iced seas, demarcation and determination of boundaries in deep ocean, tsunamis, ecology, etc., etc. Their achieved as well as desired positional accuracy estimates, based upon publications and discussions, are also given. A multipurpose approach to solve these problems is described. Finally, an optimum configuration of an ocean-bottom control-net unit is provided.
