u'''Ellipsoidal and spherical earth models.

Classes L{a_f2Tuple}, L{Ellipsoid} and L{Ellipsoid2}, an L{Ellipsoids} registry and
2 dozen functions to convert I{equatorial} radius, I{polar} radius, I{eccentricities},
I{flattenings} and I{inverse flattening}.

See module L{datums} for L{Datum} and L{Transform} information and other details.

Following is the list of predefined L{Ellipsoid}s, all instantiated lazily.
