NAME
       CSS2CD - convert from lat/lon coordinates to Cartesian coordinates.


SYNOPSIS
       CALL CSS2CD (N, RLAT, RLON, X, Y, Z)


DESCRIPTION
       N           (integer, input) The number of input lat/lon coordinates.

       RLAT        (double  precision,  input)  An  array  containing  the latitudes of the input
                   coordinates.

       RLON        (double precision, input) An array containing  the  longitudes  of  the  input
                   coordinates.

       X           (double  precision,  output)  An  array  containing  the  X  component  of the
                   Cartesian coordinates of the output data. (X(I),Y(I),Z(I))  is  the  Cartesian
                   coordinate  corresponding  to the lat/lon coordinate (RLAT(I),RLON(I)) for I=1
                   to N.

       Y           (double precision,  output)  An  array  containing  the  Y  component  of  the
                   Cartesian  coordinates  of  the output data. (X(I),Y(I),Z(I)) is the Cartesian
                   coordinate corresponding to the lat/lon coordinate (RLAT(I),RLON(I))  for  I=1
                   to N.

       Z           (double  precision,  output)  An  array  containing  the  Z  component  of the
                   Cartesian coordinates of the output data. (X(I),Y(I),Z(I))  is  the  Cartesian
                   coordinate  corresponding  to the lat/lon coordinate (RLAT(I),RLON(I)) for I=1
                   to N.


USAGE
       CSS2CD is called to find  the  equivalent  Cartesian  coordinates  on  a  unit  sphere  to
       specified  latitude  and  longitude  coordinates.   The  coordinate  of 0. latitude and 0.
       longitude is converted to Cartesian coordinate (1.,0.,0.). Latitudes  and  longitudes  are
       assumed to be in degrees.  CSS2CD is a double precision verson of CSS2C.


ACCESS
       To use CSS2CD, load the NCAR Graphics library ngmath.
