≡ START First steps Deutsch Ellipsoid : Coordinate conversion

Page contents

[PageContents]
Ellipsoidal, geocentric-cartesian and grid coordinates are converted into each other. Topocentric-cartesian coordinates are computed with the first point of the list as topocentre.

Column format:


Cartesian and ellipsoidal coordinate systems
Cartesian and ellipsoidal coordinate systems
X,Y,Zgeocentric cartesian system, righthanded
φ,λ,hellipsoidal system
N,E,hgrid system, lefthanded (not displayed)
x,y,z topocentric cartesian system, lefthanded (not as a start system, only for ≥ 2 points), topocentre = 1st point of list
Coordinate list
Did you know? The tools for ellipsoids of revolution also operate on the sphere.
