/**
 * @short A class that defines a 3D bounding box for geographic data.
 *
 * GeoDataLatLonAltBox is a 3D bounding box that describes a geographic area
 * in terms of latitude, longitude and altitude.
 *
 * The bounding box gets described by assigning the northern, southern, 
 * eastern and western boundary.
 * So usually the value of the eastern boundary is bigger than the
 * value of the western boundary. Only if the bounding box crosses the
 * date line then the eastern boundary has got a smaller value than 
 * the western one.
