Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Geodetic (   ) 
 

Default constructor.

Definition at line 60 of file Geodetic.cpp.

Geodetic (  const Geodetic &  right  ) 
 

Copy constructor.

Definition at line 65 of file Geodetic.cpp.

Geodetic (  const double &  lat,
const double &  lon,
const double &  alt,
GeoidModel *  geo = NULL
) 
 

Construct from three doubles.

Be careful you don't specify a geoid that will disappear (e.g. one on the stack where these coordinates will be used outside that context).

Parameters:
lat latitude in degrees.
lon longitude in degrees.
alt altitude in m.
geo geoid model for transformations.

Definition at line 70 of file Geodetic.cpp.

Geodetic (  const Triple &  t,
GeoidModel *  geo = NULL
) 
 

Construct from a Triple and a GeoidMode.

The triple is latitude in degrees, longitude in degrees, and altitude in meters. Be careful you don't specify a geoid that will disappear (e.g. one on the stack where these coordinates will be used outside that context).

Parameters:
t the Triple to copy from.
geo geoid model for transformations.

Definition at line 76 of file Geodetic.cpp.

Geodetic (  const ECEF &  right,
GeoidModel *  geo
)  throw (NoGeoidException)
 

Construct from an ECEF and a GeoidModel.

Converts Earth-centered, Earth-fixed XYZ coordinates (m) to Geodetic coordinates (lat,lon(E),ht) (deg,degE,m). Be careful you don't specify a geoid that will disappear (e.g. one on the stack where these coordinates will be used outside that context).

Parameters:
right the ECEF to construct from.
geo geoid model for transformations.
