Based on 60 days GOCE kinematic orbits with 1−2 cm accuracy and accelerometer data from 2009−11−02 to 2009−12−31, the RMS-of-fit (ROF) of them using EGM2008, EIGEN-5C, ITG- GRACE2010S and GOCO01S up to 120, 150 and 180 degree and order (d/o) are evaluated and compared. The scale factors and biases of GOCE accelerometer data are calibrated and the energy balance method (EBM) is performed to test the accuracy of accelerometer calibration. The results show that GOCE orbits are also sensitive to EGM from 120 to 150 d/o. The ROFs of EGMs with 150 and 180 d/o are obviously better than those of EGMs with 120 d/o. The ROFs of GOCO01S and ITG-G
