     VARIABLE  I/O  DESCRIPTION
     --------  ---  --------------------------------------------------
     RADIUS     I   Distance of a point from the origin.
     LON        I   Angle of the point from the XZ plane in radians.

     SLON       O   Angle of the point from the XZ plane (radians).

Detailed_Input

     RADIUS   is the distance of a point from the origin.

     LON      is the angle of the point from the XZ plane in
              radians.

     LAT      is the angle of the point from the XY plane in
              radians.

Detailed_Output

     RHO      is the distance of the point from the origin.

     COLAT    is the angle between the vector from the origin to the
              point and the positive Z axis in radians. COLAT is
              computed as PI/2 - LAT.

     SLON     is the angle of the point from the XZ plane (radians).
              SLON is set equal to LON.

Particulars

     This routine returns the spherical coordinates of a point
     whose position is input in latitudinal coordinates.

     Latitudinal coordinates are defined by a distance from a central
     reference point, an angle from a reference meridian, and an angle
     above the equator of a sphere centered at the central reference
     point.

     Spherical coordinates are defined by a distance from a central
     reference point, an angle from a reference meridian, and an angle
     from the z-axis.

Examples

     The numerical results shown for these examples 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) Co-latitude is obtained by subtracting latitude from HALFPI()
        Radius and longitude mean the same thing in both latitudinal
        and spherical coordinates. The table below lists LAT and
        corresponding COLAT in terms of degrees.

             LAT     COLAT
            -----    -----
               0        90
              20        70
              45        45
             -30       120
              90         0
             -45       135


     2) Compute the latitudinal coordinates of the position of the Moon
        as seen from the Earth, and convert them to spherical and
        rectangular coordinates.

        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.
