NameDimensionTypeDescription
LatitudeLatitudeUnitReal NumberThe detic latitude (i.e., angle between the detic subpoint's surface normal vector and the XY plane.)
LongitudeLongitudeUnitReal NumberThe detic longitude (i.e., angle from the X-axis locating the projection of the detic subpoint's surface normal vector onto the XY plane.) Longitude increases in the direction found using the right-hand rule about the Z-axis.
