GeoPositionXYZ

represents a position in a Cartesian geocentric coordinate system.

represents a point referred to the specified datum.

If no datum is specified, GeoPositionXYZ refers to the International Terrestrial Reference Frame 2000.

Typical values for datum specifications include "ITRF00", "NAD83CORS96", and "WGS84".

GeoPositionXYZ coordinates are assumed to have a time coordinate equal to the reference epoch date of the datum.

GeoPositionXYZ[coord] or GeoPositionXYZ converts from any geographic coordinate type. The following geographic coordinate types can be given: GeoPosition, GeoPositionXYZ, GeoPositionENU, GeoGridPosition.
