geographiclib-get-geoids(8)

✨ NAME ✨

geographiclib-get-geoids — it's a GeographicLib administrative tool, bestie 💖

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so geographiclib-get-geoids is the lil helper that downloads AND installs the geoids datasets that GeographicLib uses, over at <https://geographiclib.sourceforge.io> 🌍✨

need the docs? it's giving very "just ask" energy — hand it the -h option and it'll spill everything:

geographiclib-get-geoids -h

by default, the datasets get installed into /usr/local/share/GeographicLib/geoids, and heads up 👑 — the script requires write access to this directory, so if it's acting up, check ur permissions fr fr. no write access = no slay 😭

lowkey important: that default path is not a suggestion, it's the default. remember it. iykyk 💅

and that's the whole page, babe — short and iconic, we love a minimalist king 🦋

this was brought to you by the GeographicLib girlies, straight from the GeographicLib manual, geographiclib-get-geoids(8) — go read it, mwah 💋💖
