how to calculate latitude and longitude from range and direction(azimuth and elevation)

  • Follow


Hello. All,
I am looking for s/w or sub-routing to calculated latitude and
longitude from slant range, elevation and azimuth angle with earth
curvature.
Would you let me know the tips or where this sub-routine can be found?
Thanks!!

Hi,

A long time ago I adapted code shared by Liam Gumley and Paul Ricchiazzi 
for a similar purpose.  This was done in the days before the MAP_PROJ_* 
routines were released in IDL, so you might do well to investigate those 
first.  But if you are in a hurry you could start with these ...
