Expand description

Geographic coordinate conversions for AOI mapping. Geographic coordinate conversions for AOI mapping.

Converts between geographic coordinates (latitude/longitude) and Earth-Centered Earth-Fixed (ECEF) Cartesian coordinates.

§Equations (from SpaceCoMP paper, Equations 4-6)

x = R × cos(φ) × cos(Λ)
y = R × cos(φ) × sin(Λ)
z = R × sin(φ)

Where R is Earth’s radius, φ is latitude, Λ is longitude.

Structs§

Ecef
Earth-Centered Earth-Fixed (ECEF) Cartesian coordinate in meters.
GeoAoi
A geographic area of interest defined by its bounding box corners.
LatLon
A geographic coordinate in degrees of latitude and longitude.
