# Module triaxials

Class JacobiConformal, Jacobi's conformal projection of a triaxial ellipsoid, trancoded from Charles Karney's C++ class JacobiConformal to pure Python, class Triaxial and classes BetaOmega3Tuple,JacobiError, Jacobi2Tuple and TriaxialError.

See Also: Geodesics on a triaxial ellipsoid and Triaxial coordinate systems and their geometrical interpretation.

Version: 22.10.22

Classes
| BetaOmega2Tuple 2-Tuple `(beta, omega)` with ellipsoidal lat- and longitude `beta` and `omega` both in `Radians` (or `Degrees`).
| BetaOmega3Tuple 3-Tuple `(beta, omega, height)` with ellipsoidal lat- and longitude `beta` and `omega` both in `Radians` (or `Degrees`) and the `height`, rather the (signed) distance to the triaxial's surface (measured along the radial line to the triaxial's center) in `meter`, conventionally.
| JacobiError Raised for JacobiConformal issues.
| Jacobi2Tuple 2-Tuple `(x, y)` with a Jacobi Conformal `x` and `y` projection, both in `Radians` (or `Degrees`).
| TriaxialError Raised for Triaxial issues.
| Triaxial Triaxial ellipsoid with semi-axes `a`, `b` and `c`, oriented such that the large principal ellipse `ab` is the equator Z=0, beta=0, while the small principal ellipse `ac` is the prime meridian, Y=0, omega=0.
| JacobiConformal This is a conformal projection of the ellipsoid to a plane in which the grid lines are straight, see Jacobi, C.
