`model.location`¶

class Location(**kwargs)[source]¶

Geographical location.

The location is given by a reference point at the earth’s surface (lat, lon, elevation) and a cartesian offset from this point (north_shift, east_shift, depth). The offset corrected lat/lon coordinates of the location can be accessed though the effective_latlon, effective_lat, and effective_lon properties.

♦ lat¶

float, optional, default: 0.0

latitude of reference point [deg]

♦ lon¶

float, optional, default: 0.0

longitude of reference point [deg]

♦ north_shift¶

float, optional, default: 0.0

northward cartesian offset from reference point [m]

♦ east_shift¶

float, optional, default: 0.0

eastward cartesian offset from reference point [m]

♦ elevation¶

float, optional, default: 0.0

surface elevation, above sea level [m]

♦ depth¶

float, default: 0.0

depth, below surface [m]

property effective_latlon¶: Property holding the offset-corrected lat/lon pair of the location.

property effective_lat¶: Property holding the offset-corrected latitude of the location.

property effective_lon¶: Property holding the offset-corrected longitude of the location.

same_origin(other)[source]¶: Check whether other location object has the same reference location.

distance_to(other)[source]¶: Compute surface distance [m] to other location object.

distance_3d_to(other)[source]¶

Compute 3D distance [m] to other location object.

All coordinates are transformed to cartesian coordinates if necessary then distance is:

$\Delta = \sqrt{\Delta {\bf x}^2 + \Delta {\bf y}^2 + \Delta {\bf z}^2}$

azibazi_to(other)[source]¶: Compute azimuth and backazimuth to and from other location object.
