What is the definition of ECEF?

Stands for Earth-centered-Earth-fixed. ECEF is a coordinate-ordinate system. The X-coordinate is in the Earth’s equatorial plane with reference to the Greenwich prime meridian. The Z-axis points to the North pole. The Y-axis is in the equatorial plane 90° from the X-axis. This orientation forms a right-handed X-Y-X coordinate system.
