Use pymap3d functions for coordinate conversions #346

Closed santisoler closed 2 years ago

santisoler commented 2 years ago

Since Boule v0.5.0 the methods to perform coordinate conversions are marked as future deprecations. Instead we should be using pymap3d functions. We would need to update Harmonica docs before they break.

The things that are needed to be done are:

add pymap3d as a requirement for building the docs (see env/requirements-docs.txt and environment.yml)
update every example that makes use of boule.Ellipsoid.geodetic_to_spherical or boule.Ellipsoid.spherical_to_geodetic

In the Fatiando Dev Meeting of 2022-09-28 we decided to restore the coordinate conversions methods in Boule wrapping the pymap3d functions. So I'm closing this issue since we won't need to apply this change in Harmonica.
