dem_geodetic_to_ecef — DEM geodesy op

Data kinds: nonepoints (an op determined by its arguments alone — it takes no image or data input)

Call: import demops; demops.dem_geodetic_to_ecef(lat_deg, lon_deg, height_m=0.0) (or opsdem.get("dem_geodetic_to_ecef"))

Usage

> This operator's description has not been translated yet. The original text follows as it is.

測地座標(緯度・経度・楕円体高)→ 地心直交座標 ECEF [m]。

地球の中心を原点、赤道面の本初子午線方向を x、東経 90 度を y、北極を z と

する右手系。地形を「地球中心から見た座標」で扱いたいときの入口。

球ではなく WGS84 楕円体で計算する —— 球近似は緯度 45 度あたりで

最大 21 km ずれる(極半径が赤道半径より短いぶん)。

Args:

lat_deg / lon_deg: 緯度・経度 [度]。配列可(同じ形)。

height_m: 楕円体高 [m]。スカラでも配列でも可。

Returns:

`(..., 3)` の ECEF 座標 [m]。
