An alternative algebraic algorithm to transform Cartesian to geodetic coordinates

The algorithm to transform from 3D Cartesian to geodetic coordinates is obtained by solving the equation of the Lagrange parameter. Numerical experiments show that geodetic height can be recovered to 0.5 mm precision over the range from -6×10^sup 6^ to 10^sup 10^ m.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
