Function Documentation

template<typename EllipsoidParameters> static geographic_msgs::msg::GeoPoint geodesy::direct(const geographic_msgs::msg::GeoPoint &p1, const geometry_msgs::msg::Vector3 &direction)

Calculates the postion p2 from a direction vector from p1 on the specified ellipsoid. The direction vector is expected to have a zero z component.

Parameters:

p1 – starting point in degrees. Altitude must be zero.
direction – direction vector with x (east) and y (north) components representing the azimuth and distance.
