equals

equals(other, tolerance?): boolean

Checks whether this point is equal to another point. Two points are considered equal if and only if the great- circle distance between them is less than or equal to a specified tolerance or if the latitude and longitude components of both points are equal to NaN.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
otherLatLonInterfaceThe other point.
tolerance?numberThe tolerance of the equality check, defined as the maximum allowed distance between two equal points in great-arc radians.

Returns

boolean

Whether this point is equal to the other point.

Defined in

src/sdk/geo/GeoPoint.ts:131

equals(lat, lon, tolerance?): boolean

Checks whether this point is equal to another point. Two points are considered equal if and only if the great- circle distance between them is less than or equal to a specified tolerance or if the latitude and longitude components of both points are equal to NaN.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
latnumberThe latitude of the other point, in degrees.
lonnumberThe longitude of the other point, in degrees.
tolerance?numberThe tolerance of the equality check, defined as the maximum allowed distance between two equal points in great-arc radians.

Returns

boolean

Whether this point is equal to the other point.

Defined in

src/sdk/geo/GeoPoint.ts:142


offset

offset(bearing, distance, out?): GeoPoint

Offsets this point by an initial bearing and distance along a great circle.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription

distancenumberThe distance, in great-arc radians, by which to offset.
out?GeoPointThe GeoPoint to which to write the result.

Returns

GeoPoint

The offset point.

Defined in

src/sdk/geo/GeoPoint.ts:95


offsetRhumb

offsetRhumb(bearing, distance, out?): GeoPoint

Offsets this point by a constant bearing and distance along a rhumb line.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
bearingnumberThe true bearing, in degrees, by which to offset.
distancenumberThe distance, in great-arc radians, by which to offset.
out?GeoPointThe GeoPoint to which to write the result.

Returns

toCartesian

toCartesian(out): Float64Array

Calculates the cartesian (x, y, z) representation of this point, in units of great-arc radians. By convention, in the cartesian coordinate system the origin is at the center of the Earth, the positive x-axis passes through 0 degrees N, 0 degrees E, and the positive z-axis passes through the north pole.

Parameters

NameTypeDescription
outFloat64ArrayThe vector array to which to write the result.

Returns

Float64Array

The cartesian representation of this point.
