Wrong character
Hi, I think there's an error in the formula: you write "φ and λ are geocentric latitude and longitude respectively", but nowhere in the formula can I see any φ ...

- The problem is that Wikipedia:TeX markup permits simple TeX characters to be displayed as HTML characters, thus in a different font, which here appears to change the character, even though both are phi. Thus I changed <math>\phi</math> <math>\phi<math> to <math>\phi\ </math> <math>\phi\ <math> by adding the math text space '\ ' immediately after the math character, which forces it to be rendered as a PNG character, just like those in the formula. — Joe Kress 07:16, Apr 17, 2005 (UTC)
