Abstract
Documentation:
A GeodesicString consists of sequence of geodesic segments. The type essentially combines a sequence of Geodesic into a single object. The GeodesicString is computed from two or more positions and an interpolation using geodesics defined from the geoid (or ellipsoid) of the co-ordinate reference system being used.
