sm = rad2sm(rad)
converts distances from radians to statute miles, as measured along a great circle
on a sphere with a radius of 3958.748 sm, the mean radius of the Earth.
sm = rad2sm(rad,radius)
converts distances from radians to statute miles, as measured along a great circle
on a sphere having the specified radius.
sm = rad2sm(rad,sphere)
converts distances from radians to statute miles, as measured along a great circle
on a sphere approximating an object in the Solar System.
Distance in radians, specified as a numeric array.
Data Types: single | double
