Description:
The spherical coordinates are longitude
(ve anticlockwise
looking from the ve
latitude pole) and latitude. The Cartesian coordinates are right handed, with the x axis at zero longitude and latitude,
and the z axis at the ve
latitude pole.
Invocation
palDcs2c( double a, double b, double v[3] );
Arguments
a =
double (Given)
Spherical coordinate in radians (ra, long etc).
b = double (Given)
Spherical
coordinate in radians (dec, lat etc).
v = double [3] (Returned)
x, y, z vector
