toUnitXYZ()

def lsst.geom._SpherePoint.SpherePoint.toUnitXYZ ( *  longitude = None,   latitude = None,   ra = None,   dec = None,   units  )

static

Compute the unit 3-vectors (as separate arrays) corresponding to
arrays of longitude and latitude.

Parameters
----------
longitude : `float` or `numpy.ndarray`
    Longitude coordinate of input points.
latitude : `float` or `numpy.ndarray`
    Latitude coordinate of input points.
ra : `float` or `numpy.ndarray`
    Synonym for `longitude`.
dec : `float` or `numpy.ndarray`
    Synonym for `latitude`.
units : `AngleUnit`
    Angle unit for inputs.

Returns
-------
x : `float` or numpy.ndarray`
    X coordinates of unit 3-vectors.
y : `float` or numpy.ndarray`
    Y coordinates of unit 3-vectors.
z : `float` or numpy.ndarray`
    Z coordinates of unit 3-vectors.

Notes
-----
The returned Cartesian coordinate values are not guaranteed to be
normalized according to the conventions of `sphgeom.UnitVector3d`, but
are nevertheless compatible with the various vectorized `contains`
methods in `sphgeom` because those apply that normalization
internally.
