``c_reduced_lat_from_geodetic_lat`` =================================== .. c:function:: double Ellipsoid.c_reduced_lat_from_geodetic_lat(double geodetic_lat) Compute the reduced (parametric) latitude :math:`\beta` from a geodetic latitude :math:`\phi`. .. math:: \beta = \arctan\bigl((1 - f)\,\tan\phi\bigr) All angles are in radians (SI). :param geodetic_lat: Geodetic latitude :math:`\phi` in radians on the reference ellipsoid. :returns: Reduced (parametric) latitude :math:`\beta` in radians. :rtype: float .. seealso:: :c:func:`c_geodetic_lat_from_reduced_lat ` Inverse transform (φ from β). :meth:`reduced_lat_from_geodetic_lat ` Vectorized Python wrapper. .. note:: Releases the GIL and uses a low-level C implementation for speed.
