In order to do relativistic gravimetry one needs to define a system of null coordinates for a given constellation of satellites. We present here three methods in order to find the null coordinates of an event in a Schwarzschild geometry. We implement these three methods for the weak gravitational field of the Earth, compare their precision and time of computation.
