class  Geodesic
 

Detailed Description

Define the :class:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic` class

The ellipsoid parameters are defined by the constructor.  The direct and
inverse geodesic problems are solved by

* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.Inverse` Solve the inverse
  geodesic problem
* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.Direct` Solve the direct
  geodesic problem
* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.ArcDirect` Solve the direct
  geodesic problem in terms of spherical arc length

:class:`~geographiclib.geodesicline.GeodesicLine` objects can be created
with

* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.Line`
* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.DirectLine`
* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.ArcDirectLine`
* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.InverseLine`

:class:`~geographiclib.polygonarea.PolygonArea` objects can be created
with

* :meth:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.Polygon`

The public attributes for this class are

* :attr:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.a`
  :attr:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.f`

*outmask* and *caps* bit masks are

* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.EMPTY`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.LATITUDE`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.LONGITUDE`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.AZIMUTH`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.DISTANCE`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.STANDARD`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.DISTANCE_IN`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.REDUCEDLENGTH`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.GEODESICSCALE`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.AREA`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.ALL`
* :const:`~geographiclib.geodesic.Geodesic.LONG_UNROLL`
