      <a href="https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io/C++/doc/GeoidEval.1.html">
        GeoidEval (version $VERSION)</a>
      computes the height of the geoid above the WGS84 ellipsoid
      using interpolation in a grid of values for the earth
      gravity models,
      <a href="https://earth-info.nga.mil/index.php?dir=wgs84&action=wgs84#tab_egm84">
        EGM84</a>, or
      <a href="https://earth-info.nga.mil/index.php?dir=wgs84&action=wgs84#tab_egm96">
        EGM96</a>,
      <a href="https://earth-info.nga.mil/index.php?dir=wgs84&action=wgs84#tab_egm2008">
            EGM2008</a>.
      The RMS error in the interpolated height is about 1&nbsp;mm.
      Give the position in terms of latitude and longitude, for example
      (these all refer to the position of Timbuktu):
      <pre>
        16.776 -3.009
        16d47' -3d1'
        W3&deg;0'34" N16&deg;46'33"
        3:0:34W 16:46:33N</pre>
      The coordinates can also be given in UTM, UPS, or MGRS coordinates (see
      the documentation on the
      <a href="https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io/C++/doc/GeoConvert.1.html">
        GeoConvert</a> utility).
    </p>
    <p>
      The height of the geoid above the ellipsoid, <i>N</i>, is
      sometimes called the geoid undulation.  It can be used to convert
      a height above the ellipsoid, <i>h</i>, to the corresponding
      height above the geoid (the orthometric height, roughly the height
      above mean sea level), <i>H</i>, using the relations
      <blockquote>
        <i>h</i> = <i>N</i> + <i>H</i>;
        &nbsp;&nbsp;<i>H</i> = &minus;<i>N</i> + <i>h</i>.
