good first issue
Good for newcomers (doesn’t require deep knowledge of the project)
As shown in #13, flattening of 0 leads to not-a-number in the computations due to division by the first eccentricity (which is 0). In these cases, it would make more sense to have a
boule.Sphere
class that mirrors theEllipsoid
but is much simpler:All the eccentricities, gravity at the pole and equator, and coordinate conversions aren't needed. The forward modelling equations are also simpler (should be implemented in
Sphere.normal_gravity
).The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
