Abstract: Various examples are provided for systems and methods for geodesy in shallow water. In one example, a method includes obtaining, from a sensor module, a position of a superstructure of a moored device. At least one measurement corresponding to a heading, a pitch, or a roll of the superstructure can be obtained from the sensor module. An estimated position of an anchor, ballast, or other seafloor marker of the moored device can be determined based on the position of the superstructure and at least one corrected heading associated with the at least one measurement. The at least one corrected heading can be determined by applying a magnetic declination correction to the at least one measurement.
