Cartographic Class

A position on the earth defined by longitude, latitude, and height above the WGS84 ellipsoid.

Implements

Methods

Name Description
constructor(longitude: number = 0, latitude: number = 0, height: number = 0): Cartographic    
clone(result?: Cartographic): Cartographic Duplicates a Cartographic.  
equals(right: LatLongAndHeight): boolean Return true if this Cartographic is the same as right  
equalsEpsilon(right: LatLongAndHeight, epsilon: number): boolean Compares this Cartographic component-wise and returns true if they are within the provided epsilon,  
toEcef(result?: Point3d): Point3d Return an ECEF point from a Cartographic point  
toString(): string Create a string representing this cartographic in the format '(longitude, latitude, height)'.  
fromAngles(longitude: Angle, latitude: Angle, height: number, result?: Cartographic): Cartographic Static Create a new Cartographic from longitude and latitude in Angles.  
fromDegrees(longitude: number, latitude: number, height: number, result?: Cartographic): Cartographic Static Create a new Cartographic from longitude and latitude specified in degrees.  
fromEcef(cartesian: Point3d, result?: Cartographic): Cartographic | undefined Static Creates a new Cartographic from an ECEF position.  
fromRadians(longitude: number, latitude: number, height: number = 0, result?: Cartographic): Cartographic Static Create a new Cartographic from longitude and latitude specified in radians.  

Properties
