contents Let $X$ be a curve of genus $g>1$ over $\mathbb{Q}$ whose Jacobian $J$ has Mordell--Weil rank $r$ and Néron--Severi rank $ρ$. When $r < g+ ρ- 1$, the geometric quadratic Chabauty method determines a finite set of $p$-adic points containing the rational points of $X$. We describe algorithms for geometric quadratic Chabauty that translate the geometric quadratic Chabauty method into the language of $p$-adic heights and $p$-adic (Coleman) integrals. This translation also allows us to give a comparison to the (original) cohomological method for quadratic Chabauty. We show that the finite set of $p$-adic points produced by the geometric method is contained in the finite set produced by the cohomological method, and give a description of their difference.
