Detailed Description

EarthShape defines the ellipsoid that is to be used to convert between geocentric and geographic latitude and between depth and radius. The default is WGS84. The following EarthShapes are defined:

SPHERE - Geocentric and geographic latitudes are identical and conversion between depth and radius assume the Earth is a sphere with constant radius of 6371 km.
GRS80 - Conversion between geographic and geocentric latitudes, and between depth and radius are performed using the parameters of the GRS80 ellipsoid.
GRS80_RCONST - Conversion between geographic and geocentric latitudes are performed using the parameters of the GRS80 ellipsoid. Conversions between depth and radius assume the Earth is a sphere with radius 6371.
WGS84 - Conversion between geographic and geocentric latitudes, and between depth and radius are performed using the parameters of the WGS84 ellipsoid.
WGS84_RCONST - Conversion between geographic and geocentric latitudes are performed using the parameters of the WGS84 ellipsoid. Conversions between depth and radius assume the Earth is a sphere with radius 6371.
