In many applications it * will be sufficient to use the published geodetic latitude of the * site. In very precise (sub-arcsecond) applications, PHI can be * corrected for polar motion. * * 6) Should the user wish to work with respect to the astronomical * zenith rather than the geodetic zenith, PHI will need to be * adjusted for deflection of the vertical (often tens of * arcseconds), and the zero point of HA will also be affected. * * Reference: * Smart, W.M., "Spherical Astronomy", Cambridge University Press, * 6th edition (Green, 1977), p49. * * This revision: 2017 September 12 * * SOFA release 2023-10-11 * * Copyright (C) 2023 IAU SOFA Board.
