NAME
GIS::Distance::GeoEllipsoid - Geo::Ellipsoid distance calculations.
SYNOPSIS
# Use the default WGS84 ellipsoid:
my $gis = GIS::Distance->new( 'GeoEllipsoid' );
# Set to a custom ellipsoid:
my $gis = GIS::Distance->new( 'GeoEllipsoid', 'NAD27' );
DESCRIPTION
This module is a wrapper around Geo::Ellipsoid for GIS::Distance.
Normally this module is not used directly. Instead GIS::Distance is used which in turn interfaces with the various formula modules.
ARGUMENTS
An optional argument may be passed which must be, as shown in the "SYNOPSIS", an ellipsoid name as defined at "DEFINED ELLIPSOIDS" in Geo::Ellipsoid.
Otherwise the default, WGS84
, will be used.
FORMULA
This module is just a thin wrapper, so go see Geo::Ellipsoid for details about how it works.
