gd2gc(ellid, eph)
[SOFA] Returns geocentric coordinates (x, y, z) in meters
corresponding to geodetic coordinates eph
(east longitude
in radians, north latitude in radians, height in meters) for the
specified reference ellipsoid ellid
(1 = wgs84, 2 =
grs80, 3 = wgs72). eph
must have 3 elements in its first
dimension, and ellid
must have a single element. The
result has the same dimensions as eph
.
