Thaddeus Vincenty

GIS::Distance::Vincenty Perl module contains Thaddeus Vincenty distance calculations. SYNOPSIS my $calc = GIS::Distance::Vincenty->new(); my $distance = $calc->distance( $lon1, $lat1 => $lon2, $lat2 ); For the benefit of the terminally obsessive (as well as the genuinely needy), Thaddeus...

This is a three-degree-of-freedom (longitudinal) model of the 1903 Wright Flyer based on a BASIC simulation written by Frederick J Hooven. This model contains the airframe, environment and simple pilot models.The VRML world converted to VRML97 was originally created by Thaddeus Bejer of...

This function uses the Vincenty direct algorithm to solve the "forward geodesic problem," which is the problem of computing the endpoint of a geodesic (shortest-distance) path on the ellipsoidal earth, given the start point, a path length, and a starting azimuth. This process is also called...


Platforms: Matlab

In 1975, Vincenty published a rapidly converging algorithm for computing the distance between points on an ellipsoidal earth. The algorithm is precise to within a few millimeters. Since then, his algorithm has since seen significant implementation in geodesy and engineering. After adjusting the...
