Description :

Ellipsoid description is part of the CRS description. It is used to model the Earth surface. Tens of different ellipsoids are currently in use in different countries, mainly for historical reasons.

Please refer to the Dimap Documentation for a complete description of the Dimap Geodetic scheme.

 

Example :
 
<Ellipsoid>
  <ELLIPSOID_NAME>Ellipse_Everest_1830_1937_Adjustment</ELLIPSOID_NAME>
  <ELLIPSOID_CODE>epsg:7015</ELLIPSOID_CODE>
</Ellipsoid>

or

<Ellipsoid>
  <ELLIPSOID_NAME>Special Ellipsoid</ELLIPSOID_NAME>
  <Ellipsoid_Parameters>
    ...
  </Ellipsoid_Parameters>
</Ellipsoid>

Constraint :

CM if HORIZONTAL_DATUM_CODE not present

Note :CM means Conditional Mandatory, X means Excluded

Datatype : t_Ellipsoid

Unordered sub-elements :

Note: MinOcurs = 0 means element is optional, maxOccurs = unbounded means element is repeatable.
MinOccurs default value is 1 (element is mandatory)
maxOccurs default value is 1 (element is not repeatable)
