Functions for performing various position calculations are available for download here. The functions are available in Matlab, C#, C++, Python, JavaScript, and other languages.

## Matlab

Convert between lat/long and n-vector:

• lat_long2n_E.m Converts latitude and longitude to n-vector
• n_E2lat_long.m Converts n-vector to latitude and longitude

Convert between delta (i.e. local position vector) and n-vectors:

• n_EA_E_and_n_EB_E2p_AB_E.m From two positions A and B, finds the delta position
• n_EA_E_and_p_AB_E2n_EB_E.m From position A and delta, finds position B

Convert between n-vector and ECEF-vector (i.e. position vector from Earth center, in meters):

• n_EB_E2p_EB_E.m Converts n-vector to ECEF-vector
• p_EB_E2n_EB_E.m Converts ECEF-vector to n-vector

Convert between n-vector and rotation matrix:

• R_EN2n_E.m Finds n-vector from
• n_E2R_EN.m Finds
from n-vector
• R_EL2n_E.m Finds n-vector from
• n_E_and_wa2R_EL.m Finds
from n-vector and wander azimuth angle

Convert between Euler angles and rotation matrix:

• xyz2R.m Creates a rotation matrix from three angles about new axes in the xyz order
• R2xyz.m Three angles about new axes in the xyz order are found from a rotation matrix
• zyx2R Creates a rotation matrix from three angles about new axes in the zyx order (e.g. yaw-pitch-roll)
• R2zyx.m Three angles about new axes in the zyx order (e.g. yaw-pitch-roll) are found from a rotation matrix

Miscellaneous simple utilities:

• unit.m Makes input vector unit length (i.e. norm=1)
• rad.m Converts angle in degrees to radians
• deg.m Converts angle in radians to degrees
• R_Ee.m Selects axes of the coordinate frame E
