NORTH ATLANTIC TREATY ORGANISATION (NATO)Standardisation Agreement • July 19th, 1999
Contract Type FiledJuly 19th, 1999The collection platform position vector Ap is described in terms of the angle its Ap(x,y) projection it makes with the Y-axis (longitude), the angle its Ap(y,z) projection makes with the Y-axis (latitude) and the magnitude of the vector. The magnitude of the vector gives the distance from the centre of the geodetic datum. This can be directly used to give height above the geodetic datum. Local transforms can then be used to supply a local coordinate system.
