If you start with latitude/longitude/height-above-ellipsoid, then you
can use LocalCartesian::Foward to convert to a normal 3d coordinates.
Use standard 3d geometry to move to the second point according to
heading, pitch, and distance.  Then use LocalCartesian::Reverse to get
back to lat/long/height.

Hi
I would like to use Geographiclib to work out a forward location by providing a start location, heading, pitch and a distance.
The start location is in 3D space lat, lon and height, and I would like to work out the next point in 3D space providing the above mentioned parameters.

Is this possible by using Geographiclib?
