convert from Cartesian to lat/lon coordinates
Synopsis
CALL CSC2S (N, X, Y, Z, RLAT, RLON)
Description
- N
(integer, input) The number of coordinates to convert.
- X,Y,Z
(real, input) The Cartesian coordinates of the input points.
- RLAT
(real, output) The latitudes of the output coordinates, in degrees.
- RLON
(real, output) The longitudes of the output coordinates, in degrees.
Usage
CSC2S is called to find equivalent latitude and longitude coordinates to specified Cartesian coordinates on the unit sphere. The coordinate (1.,0.,0.) is mapped to the latitude/longitude coordinate (0.,0.). The latitude/longitude coordinates are returned in degrees.
Access
To use CSC2S, load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath.
