His principal works dealt with the determination of the orbits of comets, planets, and satellites, refraction, and barometric leveling. From 1836 to 1838, Savich conducted a leveling of the land between the Black and Caspian seas. Together with P. M. Smyslov and R. E. Lents, he was the first in Russia to make a determination of the force of gravity using reversible pendulums along an arc of the meridian (1865–68).
