Oakrey.Geodesy

1. Overview

The Geodesy project provides a comprehensive framework for geodetic computations and transformations. It includes classes and interfaces for representing and converting between various geodetic coordinate systems, such as latitude/longitude, Earth-Centered Earth-Fixed (ECEF), and East-North-Up (ENU). The project also supports geodetic models like the GRS80 ellipsoid.

2. Features

Coordinate Representations:

• Classes like LatitudeLongitude, LatitudeLongitudeAltitude, and LatitudeLongitudeHeight represent geodetic coordinates with varying levels of detail (e.g., altitude, height).
• EarthCenteredEarthFixed represents coordinates in the ECEF system.
• EastNorthUp and NorthEastDown provide local tangent plane coordinate systems.

Geodetic Models:

EarthGRS80Model:

• Implements the GRS80 ellipsoid model for Earth.
• Provides methods for calculating radii, geodetic-to-geocentric latitude conversions, and more.

Transformations and Conversions:

• Classes like AzimuthElevation and YawPitchRoll support transformations between coordinate systems.
• Conversion methods are provided for transforming between ECEF, ENU, and geodetic coordinates.

Mathematical Utilities:

• Includes methods for parsing and validating geodetic data.
• Supports vector representations and operations.

Extensibility:

Interfaces like ILatitudeLongitude, ILatitudeLongitudeAltitude, and ILatitudeLongitudeHeight allow for custom implementations.
