          extended by iceCube.uhe.geometry.IceCubeCoordinate

public class IceCubeCoordinate
extends EarthLocalCoordinate

This class defines IceCube local coordinate system. The y axis is "Grid North"(it is aligned with Prime Meridian, pointing toward Greeenwich), the x axis is "Grid East"(pointing 90 degree clock-wise from Grid North), and the z axis is normal to the Earth's surface, pointing "up".
