Elevation issue

[fabio.portieri]

Hello everybody
Maybe you guys can help me out with this weird issue i have, given this code

WWJ.addPositionListener(new PositionListener() {

public void moved(PositionEvent pe) {
double el = WWJ.getModel().getGlobe().getElevation(p e.getPosition().getLatitude(),pe.getPosi tion().getLongitude() );
double ele2= WWJ.getModel().getGlobe().getElevation(A ngle.fromDegrees(45.88042d), Angle.fromDegrees(10.84165d));
System.out.println("elevation at Lat: " + pe.getPosition().getLatitude() + " Lon: " + pe.getPosition().getLongitude() + " : " +el + " WRONG: " + ele2);
}
});



This is some output generated:

My question is, why retrieving elevation with:
WWJ.getModel().getGlobe().getElevation(A ngle.fromDegrees(45.88042d), Angle.fromDegrees(10.84165d));

In other words by handcoding the lat and lon, gives me wrong results
In the other end, using positionevent position it works as expected

It just don't make sense to me
Thanks in advance

Maybe you need to use Angle.fromDegreesLatitude() instead of Angle.fromDegrees()? I'm not sure if those give different results though.
