: mu = geo2rect (phi)

: mu = geo2rect (phi, spheroid)

: mu = geo2rect (phi, spheroid, angleUnit)

Returns the rectifying latitude given geodetic latitude phi

Input

• phi: the geodetic latitude

• (optional) spheroid: referenceEllipsoid name, EPSG code, or parameter struct: default is wgs84.
• (optional) angleUnit: string for angular units (’degrees’ or ’radians’, case-insensitive, just the first character will do). Default is ’degrees’.

Output

• mu: the rectifying latitude

Example

geo2rect(45)
ans =  44.856
