Geodesics on an ellipsoid of revolution (1102.1215v1)
Published 7 Feb 2011 in physics.geo-ph and physics.comp-ph
Abstract: Algorithms for the computation of the forward and inverse geodesic problems for an ellipsoid of revolution are derived. These are accurate to better than 15 nm when applied to the terrestrial ellipsoids. The solutions of other problems involving geodesics (triangulation, projections, maritime boundaries, and polygonal areas) are investigated.
