radarx.utils.cartesian_to_geographic_aeqd(x, y, lon_0, lat_0, earth_radius)[source]#

Transform Cartesian coordinates (x, y) to geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude) using the Azimuthal Equidistant (AEQD) map projection.

Parameters:

  • x, y (array-like) – Cartesian coordinates in the same units as the Earth’s radius, typically meters.

  • lon_0, lat_0 (float) – Longitude and latitude, in degrees, of the center of the projection.

  • earth_radius (float) – Radius of the Earth in meters.

Returns:

lon, lat (array) – Longitude and latitude of Cartesian coordinates in degrees.

Notes

The calculations follow the AEQD projection equations, where the Earth’s radius is used to define the distance metric.
