static Ellipsoid fromAxes(
  const T semiMajorAxis,
  const T semiMinorAxis
) @safe;

Parameters

NameDescription
semiMajorAxis Finite positive semi-major axis.
semiMinorAxis Finite positive semi-minor axis in the same linear unit, with semiMinorAxis <= semiMajorAxis.

Returns

The constructed spherical or oblate ellipsoid.

Throws

GeodesyValueException for invalid axes.
