Realization of an ORMT

• RDS

  • RDS
    • Oblate ellipsoid instance
    • XZ-plane
  • Binding Rule
    • the ellipsoid minor axis must be contained in the plane.

• Binding

  • There is only one place in Earth’s space for the RDS with:
    • ellipsoid minor axis points parallel to Earth’s rotational axis
    • The point is on the ellipsoid surface with given long/lat
    • The surface normal at the point points in the given direction.

The binding creates an

indirect normal embedding

of 3D position-space

The actual binding

methodology

is not part of the SRM
