Parameters

Type
MemberValueDescription
eCartesian0Cartesian: position specified in terms of the X, Y and Z components of the object's position vector, where the Z-axis points to the North pole, and the X-axis crosses 0 degrees latitude/0 degrees longitude.
eCylindrical1Cylindrical: position specified in terms of radius (polar), longitude (measured in degrees from -360.0 degrees to +360.0 degrees), and the Z component of the object's position vector.
eGeocentric2Geocentric: position specified in terms of latitude (spherical latitude of the sub-point on the surface of the Earth), longitude and altitude.
eGeodetic3Geodetic: position specified in terms of latitude (angle between the normal to the reference ellipsoid and the equatorial plane), longitude and altitude.
eSpherical4Spherical: position specified in terms of latitude (spherical latitude of the sub-point on the surface of the Earth), longitude and radius (distance of the object from the center of the Earth).
ePlanetocentric5Planetocentric: position specified in terms of latitude (spherical latitude of the sub-point on the surface of the Earth), longitude and altitude.
ePlanetodetic6Planetodetic: position specified in terms of latitude (angle between the normal to the reference ellipsoid and the equatorial plane), longitude and altitude.
