bearingFrom()​

Call Signature​

bearingFrom(other): number

Defined in: src/sdk/geo/GeoPoint.ts:78

Calculates the final true bearing from another point to this point (i.e. the back azimuth from this point to the other point) along the great circle connecting the two.

Parameters​
ParameterTypeDescription
otherReadonly<LatLonInterface>The other point.
Returns​

number

The final true bearing from the other point, in degrees, or NaN if this point and the other point are coincident or antipodal. If this point is one of the poles, then the bearing will be expressed relative to the direction in which the meridian defined by this point's longitude crosses the pole rather than true north.

lonnumberThe longitude of the other point, in degrees.
Returns​

number

The final true bearing from the other point, in degrees, or NaN if this point and the other point are coincident or antipodal. If this point is one of the poles, then the bearing will be expressed relative to the direction in which the meridian defined by this point's longitude crosses the pole rather than true north.

toCartesian()​

toCartesian(out): Float64Array

Defined in: src/sdk/geo/GeoPoint.ts:138

Calculates the cartesian (x, y, z) representation of this point, in units of great-arc radians.
