Abstract: Brief review and summarization on the development and recent history concerning the application of geodetic data to earthquake prediction have been given based on authors' understanding. Some research results of crust deformational anomalies and predictions related with strong earthquakes are given in the paper. It includes Haicheng earthquake in 1975, Tangshan earthquake in 1976, Datong earthquake in 1989, Lijiang earthquake in 1996, West to Kunlunshan Pass earthquake in 2001, Xinjiang Wushi earthquake in 2005, and the Indonesia great earthquake with M_S8.7 occurred at the end of 2004. The results show that the geodesy, especially the development of satellite techniques on earth survey, has promoted the earthquake prediction research obviously. Moreover, those results have significant values of reference and guidance for further study with multi-subjects and the decision-making about earthquake monitoring and prediction.
