epsm - Accuracy in angle units for certain map computations
Syntax
epsm
epsm(units)
Description
epsm is the limit of map
angular precision. It is useful in avoiding trigonometric singularities,
among other things.
epsm(units) returns
the same angle in units corresponding to any valid angle units string.
The default is 'degrees'.
Examples
The value of epsm is 10–6 degrees.
To put this in perspective, in terms of an angular arc length, the
distance is
epsmkm = deg2km(epsm)
epsmkm =
1.1119e-04 % kilometers
This is about 11 centimeters, a very small distance on a global
scale.
