Class WGS84SpheroidEarthModel

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    EarthModel

    @Alias({"WGS-84","WGS84"})
    public class WGS84SpheroidEarthModel
    extends AbstractEarthModel
    The WGS84 spheroid earth model, without height model (so not a geoid, just a spheroid!)

    Note that EGM96 uses the same spheroid, but what really makes the difference is its geoid expansion.

    Radius: 6378137.0 m

    Flattening: 1 / 298.257223563
