1. INTRODUCTION
2. MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS
Y
tan 1
X
and the initial value of the latitude can be computed as
Z
0 tan 1
D(1 e2 )
calculated as a
N0
1 e2 sin 2 0
Improved values of the latitude and the prime vertical can be calculated
by iterating the equation of the N above and the equation of the latitude given as
Z e2 N 0 sin 0
0 tan 1
D
After obtaining the value of the latitude when the iteration converges, the
height can now be computed as
𝐷
ℎ= −𝑁.
