Type: Package Package: nvctr Title: The n-vector Approach to Geographical Position Calculations using an Ellipsoidal Model of Earth Version: 0.1.7 Authors@R: c(person(given = "Enrico", family = "Spinielli", role = c("aut", "cre"), email = "enrico.spinielli@eurocontrol.int", comment = c(ORCID = "0000-0001-8584-9131")), person(given = "EUROCONTROL", role = c("cph", "fnd"))) Maintainer: Enrico Spinielli Description: The n-vector framework uses the normal vector to the Earth ellipsoid (called n-vector) as a non-singular position representation that turns out to be very convenient for practical position calculations. The n-vector is simple to use and gives exact answers for all global positions, and all distances, for both ellipsoidal and spherical Earth models.
