class | GravityCircle |
Model of the earth's gravity field.
Evaluate the earth's gravity field according to a model. The supported models treat only the gravitational field exterior to the mass of the earth. When computing the field at points near (but above) the surface of the earth a small correction can be applied to account for the mass of the atmosphere above the point in question; see gravityatmos. Determining the height of the geoid above the ellipsoid entails correcting for the mass of the earth above the geoid. The egm96 and egm2008 include separate correction terms to account for this mass.

Construct a gravity model.
[in] | name | the name of the model. |
[in] | path | (optional) directory for data file. |
GeographicErr | if the data file cannot be found, is unreadable, or is corrupt. |
std::bad_alloc | if the memory necessary for storing the model can't be allocated. |
A filename is formed by appending ".egm" (World Gravity Model) to the name. If path is specified (and is non-empty), then the file is loaded from directory, path. Otherwise the path is given by DefaultGravityPath().
This file contains the metadata which specifies the properties of the model. The coefficients for the spherical harmonic sums are obtained from a file obtained by appending ".cof" to metadata file (so the filename ends in ".egm.cof").

GravityCircle GeographicLib::GravityModel::Circle | ( | real | lat, |
real | h, | ||
unsigned | caps = ALL |
||
) | const |
Create a GravityCircle object to allow the gravity field at many points with constant lat and h and varying lon to be computed efficiently.
[in] | lat | latitude of the point (degrees). |
[in] | h | the height of the point above the ellipsoid (meters). |
[in] | caps | bitor'ed combination of GravityModel::mask values specifying the capabilities of the resulting GravityCircle object. |
std::bad_alloc | if the memory necessary for creating a GravityCircle can't be allocated. |
The GravityModel::mask values are
The default value of caps is GravityModel::ALL which turns on all the capabilities. If an unsupported function is invoked, it will return NaNs. Note that GravityModel::GEOID_HEIGHT will only be honored if h = 0.
If the field at several points on a circle of latitude need to be calculated then creating a GravityCircle object and using its member functions will be substantially faster, especially for high-degree models. See gravityparallel for an example of using GravityCircle (together with OpenMP) to speed up the computation of geoid heights.

This is the value of the environment variable GEOGRAPHICLIB_GRAVITY_NAME, if set; otherwise, it is "egm96". The GravityModel class does not use this function; it is just provided as a convenience for a calling program when constructing a GravityModel object.

This is the value of the environment variable GEOGRAPHICLIB_GRAVITY_PATH, if set; otherwise, it is $GEOGRAPHICLIB_DATA/gravity if the environment variable GEOGRAPHICLIB_DATA is set; otherwise, it is a compile-time default (/usr/local/share/GeographicLib/gravity on non-Windows systems and C:/ProgramData/GeographicLib/gravity on Windows systems).
