| Abstract: | We present formulas for direct closed-form transformation between geodetic coordinates (φ, λ, h) and ellipsoidal coordinates
(β, λ, u) for any oblate ellipsoid of revolution. These will be useful for those dealing with ellipsoidal representations
of the Earth’s gravity field or other oblate ellipsoidal figures. The numerical stability of the transformations for near-polar
and near-equatorial regions is also considered. |
