Geo::Spline Description

Geo::Spline is a Perl module to calculate geographic locations between GPS fixes. Geo::Spline is a Perl module to calculate geographic locations between GPS fixes.SYNOPSIS use Geo::Spline; my $p0={time=>1160449100.67, #seconds lat=>39.197807, #degrees lon=>-77.263510, #degrees speed=>31.124, #m/s heading=>144.8300}; #degrees clockwise from North my $p1={time=>1160449225.66, lat=>39.167718, lon=>-77.242278, speed=>30.615, heading=>150.5300}; my $spline=Geo::Spline->new($p0, $p1); my %point=$spline->point(1160449150); print "Lat:", $point{"lat"}, ", Lon:", $point{"lon"}, "nn"; my @points=$spline->pointlist(); foreach (@points) { print "Lat:", $_->{"lat"}, ", Lon:", $_->{"lon"}, "n"; }This program was developed to be able to calculate the position between two GPS fixes using a 2-dimensional 3rd order polynomial spline. f(t) = A + B(t-t0) + C(t-t0)^2 + D(t-t0)^3 #position in X and Y f'(t) = B + 2C(t-t0) + 3D(t-t0)^2 #velocity in X and YI did some simple Math (for an engineer with a math minor) to come up with these formulas to calculate the unknowns from our knowns. A = x0 # when (t-t0)=0 in f(t) B = v0 # when (t-t0)=0 in f'(t) C = (x1-A-B(t1-t0)-D(t1-t0)^3)/(t1-t0)^2 # solve for C from f(t) C = (v1-B-3D(t1-t0)^2)/2(t1-t0) # solve for C from f'(t) D = (v1(t1-t0)+B(t1-t0)-2x1+2A)/(t1-t0)^3 # equate C=C then solve for DRequirements:· Perl Requirements: · Perl
