NAME

GIS::Distance::GeoEllipsoid - Geo::Ellipsoid distance calculations.

SYNOPSIS

# Use the default WGS84 ellipsoid:
my $gis = GIS::Distance->new( 'GeoEllipsoid' );

# Set the 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 classes.

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS

ellipsoid

my $gis = GIS::Distance->new( 'GeoEllipsoid', 'NAD27' );

Pass the name of an ellipsoid, per "DEFINED ELLIPSOIDS" in Geo::Ellipsoid.

If not set the default ellipsoid, WGS84, will be used.
