vulcan::Spherical< Scalar > Struct Template Reference

#include <Geodetic.hpp>

Public Member Functions
	Spherical ()
	Spherical (Scalar lon_, Scalar lat_gc_, Scalar radius_)

Public Attributes
Scalar	lon
	Longitude [rad], positive East, range [-π, π].
Scalar	lat_gc
	Geocentric latitude [rad], range [-π/2, π/2].
Scalar	radius
	Distance from Earth center [m].

Detailed Description

template<typename Scalar>
struct vulcan::Spherical< Scalar >

Geocentric (spherical) coordinates

Represents a position in spherical coordinates centered at Earth's center. Unlike geodetic coordinates, geocentric latitude is measured as the angle from the equatorial plane to the position vector (not the ellipsoid normal).

Template Parameters

Scalar

Scalar type (double for numeric, janus::SymbolicScalar for symbolic)
