   VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
   --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
   lon        I   Geodetic longitude of point (radians).
   lat        I   Geodetic latitude of point (radians).
   alt        I   Altitude of point above the reference spheroid.
   re         I   Equatorial radius of the reference spheroid.
   f          I   Flattening coefficient.
   jacobi     O   Matrix of partial derivatives.

Detailed_Input

   lon         is the geodetic longitude of point (radians).

   lat         is the geodetic latitude  of point (radians).

   alt         is the altitude of point above the reference spheroid.

   re          is the equatorial radius of the reference spheroid.

   f           is the flattening coefficient = (re-rp) / re,  where `rp' is
               the polar radius of the spheroid. (More importantly
               rp = re*(1-f).)

Detailed_Output

   jacobi      is the matrix of partial derivatives of the conversion
               between geodetic and rectangular coordinates. It
               has the form

                  .-                             -.
                  |  dx/dlon   dx/dlat  dx/dalt   |
                  |  dy/dlon   dy/dlat  dy/dalt   |
                  |  dz/dlon   dz/dlat  dz/dalt   |
                  `-                             -'

               evaluated at the input values of `lon', `lat' and `alt'.

               The formulae for computing `x', `y', and `z' from
               geodetic coordinates are given below.

                  x = [alt +        re/g(lat,f)]*cos(lon)*cos(lat)


                  y = [alt +        re/g(lat,f)]*sin(lon)*cos(lat)

                                     2
                  z = [alt + re*(1-f) /g(lat,f)]*         sin(lat)

               where

                  re    is the polar radius of the reference spheroid.

                  f     is the flattening factor (the polar radius is
                        obtained by multiplying the equatorial radius by 1-f).

                  g( lat, f ) is given by

                         2             2     2
                     sqrt ( cos (lat) + (1-f) * sin (lat) )

Parameters

   None.

Exceptions

   1)  If the flattening coefficient is greater than or equal to one,
       the error SPICE(VALUEOUTOFRANGE) is signaled by a routine in
       the call tree of this routine.

   2)  If the equatorial radius is non-positive, the error
       SPICE(BADRADIUS) is signaled by a routine in the call tree of
       this routine.

Files

   None.

Particulars

   It is often convenient to describe the motion of an object in
   the geodetic coordinate system. However, when performing
   vector computations its hard to beat rectangular coordinates.

   To transform states given with respect to geodetic coordinates
   to states with respect to rectangular coordinates, one makes use
   of the Jacobian of the transformation between the two systems.

   Given a state in geodetic coordinates

        ( lon, lat, alt, dlon, dlat, dalt )

   the velocity in rectangular coordinates is given by the matrix
   equation:

                  t          |                                 t
      (dx, dy, dz)   = jacobi|             * (dlon, dlat, dalt)
                             |(lon,lat,alt)


   This routine computes the matrix

            |
      jacobi|
            |(lon,lat,alt)

Examples

   The numerical results shown for this example may differ across
   platforms. The results depend on the SPICE kernels used as
   input, the compiler and supporting libraries, and the machine
   specific arithmetic implementation.

   1) Find the geodetic state of the earth as seen from
      Mars in the IAU_MARS reference frame at January 1, 2005 TDB.
      Map this state back to rectangular coordinates as a check.

      Use the meta-kernel shown below to load the required SPICE
      kernels.

         This meta-kernel is intended to support operation of SPICE
         example programs. The kernels shown here should not be
         assumed to contain adequate or correct versions of data
         required by SPICE-based user applications.

         In order for an application to use this meta-kernel, the
         kernels referenced here must be present in the user's
         current working directory.

         The names and contents of the kernels referenced
         by this meta-kernel are as follows:
