+<p>This operation converts geocentric coordinate values (X, Y, Z) to topocentric
+(E/East, N/North, U/Up) values. This is also sometimes known as the ECEF (Earth
+Centered Earth Fixed) to ENU conversion.</p>
+<p>Topocentric coordinates are expressed in a frame whose East and North axis form
+a local tangent plane to the Earth’s ellipsoidal surface fixed to a specific
+location (the topocentric origin), and the Up axis points upwards along the
+normal to that plane.</p>
+<a class="reference internal image-reference" href="../../_images/ECEF_ENU_Longitude_Latitude_relationships.png"><img alt="ENU coordinate frame" class="align-center" src="../../_images/ECEF_ENU_Longitude_Latitude_relationships.png" style="width: 400.0px; height: 379.0px;" /></a>
+<p>The topocentric origin is a required parameter of the conversion, and can be
+expressed either as geocentric coordinates (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">X_0</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Y_0</span></code> and <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Z_0</span></code>) or
+as geographic coordinates (<code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">lat_0</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">lon_0</span></code>, <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">h_0</span></code>).</p>
+<p>When conversion between geographic and topocentric coordinates is desired, the
+topocentric conversion must be preceded by the <a class="reference internal" href="cart.html#cart"><span class="std std-ref">Geodetic to cartesian conversion</span></a> conversion to
+perform the initial geographic to geocentric coordinates conversion.</p>
