geodesy 0.15.0

A platform for experiments with geodetic transformations and data flow
Documentation
/// Estimate deflection of the vertical from a geoid model.
/// Mostly for manual look-ups, so it takes input in degrees and conventional
/// nautical latitude-longitude order, and provides output in arcsec in the
/// corresponding (ξ, η) order.
///
/// Note that this is mostly for order-of-magnitude considerations:
/// Typically observations of deflections of the vertical are input
/// data for geoid determination, not the other way round, as here.
