GeodeticPoint Class

Uses

GeoCalcCOM.IGeodeticPoint2

GeoCalcCOM.ICloneable

 

Description

The GeodeticPoint class represents a point in a GeodeticCoordSys.  The position of the point is defined by two AngularValues, Latitude and Longitude, and one LinearValue, Height.  The Latitude and Longitude give the position of the point on the HorizontalDatum used by the GeodeticCoordSys, and the Height gives the height of the point above (or below) the HorizontalDatum, according to the VerticalReference used in the GeodeticCoordSys.  A GeodeticPoint can have either two or three Dimensions.  In a two-dimensional GeodeticPoint, only the Latitude and Longitude properties are used to describe the location, whereas in a three-dimensional GeodeticPoint, the position is given by Latitude, Longitude, and Height.
