CALCULATING THE COORDINATES OF THE AIRCRAFT USING VINCENTY’S FORMULA

Agayev Nadir B., Nesreddin I. Isgandarov

In this paper a method calculating the coordinates of the aircraft based on the formula of Vincenty is proposed. Comparison of the proposed method results with the results of "Great Circle" method and extrapolation method has been suggested herein. (pp. 92-100)

Keywords: aircraft, geodetic coordinates, Vincenty’s formula, flight plan, flight trajectory
