Geodetic Transformations

Set of tools to perform transformations between projection, ellipsoidal and cartesian coordinates in either direction.

Included are

proj2ell - projection to ellipsoidal

ell2cart - ellipsoidal to global cartesian

d3trafo - datum transformation between global cartesian coordinate systems

cart2ell - global cartesian to ellipsoidal

ell2proj - ellipsoidal to projection

helmert3d - calculate the d3trafo parameters from coordinate sets in two cartesian systems

Some projections and ellipsoids are already defined in mat-Files.

This functions are often used in geodesy when transforming between different coordinate systems, e.g. UTM to GK or GPS-data (WGS84) to UTM.
