Replace rotation conventions by actual rotation representations #43

Closed juliohm closed 2 years ago

juliohm commented 3 years ago

As a quick workaround to include more features to the package, I've included a couple of rotation conventions from various software in geosciences under the conventions folder as we did with the GMSH ordering convention. These conventions should be replaced by actual types following the ReferenceFrameRotations.jl API so that we can easily convert back and forth between different rotation representations including quaternions, direction cosine matrices, etc.

I am super busy migrating functionality from GeoStatsBase.jl to here, so feel free to tackle this issue if you are free 👍🏽

Finally found the time to fix this 🙏🏽 Now we need to wait for some open issues in ReferenceFrameRotations.jl to decide on what to do next.
