 | | Longitudinal-latitudinal coordinates calulator?

hi folks, does anybody have a clue where I could find a converter/calculator which simply converts my LDraw coordinates into longitudinal-latitudinal values and vice versa? if not could some of the code-gods write down a little piece of prog? no (...) (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Hi Willy, Are you wanting to provide X,Y,Z and getting lattitide and longitide in L3P format? Are we to assume that the center of the globe is at the LDraw origin? Kevin (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) Does this help any? (URL) no cut-n-paste, but I bet if you google with the right keywords you'll find something better. I used these: spherical coordinates convert applet Enjoy, Don (20 years ago, 16-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) hi kevin, I'd like to have it both ways. I provide x,y,z and get lat,long+distance from origin (and yes, the center of the globe is at the LDraw origin) and vice versa. I need this to render backgrounds in bryce using the same camera position (...) (20 years ago, 17-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) The above is simple but if you want L3P global coodinates from X,Y,Z coordinates then that's a little more complicated. The zero radius of the L3P global coordinates is determined by the bounding boxes of the parts in the model and the center (...) (20 years ago, 17-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad)

(...) hi don(e), thx for the tool. It'll do the job 'til you bake this code into a solid nice .exe ;-))) w. (20 years ago, 20-Feb-05, to lugnet.cad)
