It solves the direct and inverse geodesic problems -on an ellipsoid of revolution. In addition, the reduced length of a -geodesic and the area between a geodesic and the equator can be -computed. The results are accurate to round off for |\fIf\fR| < 1/50, -where \fIf\fR is the flattening. Note that the geodesic routines -measure angles (latitudes, longitudes, and azimuths) in degrees, unlike -the rest of the \fBproj\fR library, which uses radians. The -documentation for this library is included in geodesic.h. A formatted -version of the documentation is available at -https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io/1.50/C. Detailed documentation of -the interface is given at -https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io/1.50/C/geodesic_8h.html. -.SH EXAMPLE -The following program reads in lines with the coordinates for two points -in decimal degrees (\fIlat1\fR, \fIlon1\fR, \fIlat2\fR, \fIlon2\fR) and -prints out \fIazi1\fR, \fIazi2\fR, \fIs12\fR for the geodesic line -between each pair of points on the WGS84 ellipsoid. (N.B. \fIazi2\fR is -the forward azimuth at point 2.) -.nf -\f(CW - -#include <stdio.h> -#include <geodesic.h> - -int main() { - double a = 6378137, f = 1/298.257223563; /* WGS84 */ - double lat1, lon1, azi1, lat2, lon2, azi2, s12; - struct geod_geodesic g; - - geod_init(&g, a, f); - while (scanf("%lf %lf %lf %lf", - &lat1, &lon1, &lat2, &lon2) == 4) { - geod_inverse(&g, lat1, lon1, lat2, lon2, - &s12, &azi1, &azi2); - printf("%.8f %.8f %.3f\en", azi1, azi2, s12); - } - return 0; -} \fR -.br -.fi -.SH LIBRARY -libproj.a \- library of projections and support procedures -.SH SEE ALSO -Full online documentation for \fBgeodesic(3)\fR, -.br -https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io/1.50/C -.br -https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io/1.50/C/geodesic_8h.html -.PP -.B geod(1) -.PP -\fBGeographicLib\fR, https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io -.PP -The \fBGeodesicExact\fR class in GeographicLib solves the geodesic -problems in terms of elliptic integrals; the results are accurate for -arbitrary \fIf\fR. -.PP -C.
