Geocentric

Java library to calculate heliocentric and geocentric planetary positions. Two types of calculations are supported: a 'fast' version which has an accuracy of about 1 arc second and a 'full' version that implements the full VSOP87 theory.

GeographicLib is a small, handy set of C++ classes specially designed to help you convert between geographic, UTM, UPS, MGRS, geocentric, and local cartesian coordinates, for geoid calculations, and for computing geodesic. The emphasis is on returning accurate results with errors close to...

This software computes synthesis of spherical harmonics models on sparse coordinates or grids (provided in a geodetic or geocentric reference system). It exploits basic parallelism using openmp directives. A solution with MPI has not be taken into account since it cannot be so easily manageble...
