public interface EllipsoidalCS
extends CoordinateSystem

A two- or three-dimensional coordinate system in which position is specified by geodetic latitude, geodetic longitude, and (in the three-dimensional case) ellipsoidal height.

An EllipsoidalCS shall have two or three axis associations. This type of CS can be used by coordinate reference systems of type GeographicCRS or EngineeringCRS.
