//: A specific geographic coordinate system
// Intended to represent a location relative to the earth
// 3D coordinate system that is intended to represent a location relative to
// the earth, although its use is not restricted to earthbound coordinate
// systems. The geocentric latitude is the angle made by a line to the center
// of the ellipsoid with the equatorial plane. The coordinates of a point are
// specified by the angles `lat' and `lon', and the distance from the surface
// of the ellipsoid, `z'.
