Class GeodesicCore

constructor

• new GeodesicCore(options?): GeodesicCore

• Parameters

  • Optional options: GeodesicOptions

  Returns GeodesicCore

Readonly ellipsoid

Readonly options

direct

• direct(start, bearing, distance, maxInterations?): WGS84Vector

• Vincenty direct calculation. based on the work of Chris Veness (https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy) source: https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy/blob/master/latlon-ellipsoidal-vincenty.js

  Parameters

  • start: LatLng

    starting point
  • bearing: number

    initial bearing (in degrees)
  • distance: number

    distance from starting point to calculate along given bearing in meters.
  • maxInterations: number = 100

    How many iterations can be made to reach the allowed deviation (ε), before an error will be thrown.

  Returns WGS84Vector

  Final point (destination point) and bearing (in degrees)

intersection

• intersection(firstPos, firstBearing, secondPos, secondBearing): null | LatLng

• Returns the point of intersection of two paths defined by position and bearing. This calculation uses a spherical model of the earth. This will lead to small errors compared to an ellipsiod model. based on the work of Chris Veness (https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy) source: https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy/blob/master/latlon-spherical.js

  Parameters

  • firstPos: LatLng

    1st path: position and bearing
  • firstBearing: number
  • secondPos: LatLng

    2nd path: position and bearing
  • secondBearing: number

  Returns null | LatLng

inverse

• inverse(start, dest, maxInterations?, mitigateConvergenceError?): GeoDistance

• Vincenty inverse calculation. based on the work of Chris Veness (https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy) source: https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy/blob/master/latlon-ellipsoidal-vincenty.js

  Parameters

  • start: LatLng

    Latitude/longitude of starting point.
  • dest: LatLng

    Latitude/longitude of destination point.
  • maxInterations: number = 100
  • mitigateConvergenceError: boolean = true

  Returns GeoDistance

  Object including distance, initialBearing, finalBearing.

midpoint

• midpoint(start, dest): LatLng

• Parameters

  • start: LatLng
  • dest: LatLng

  Returns LatLng

mod

• mod(n, p): number

• implements scientific modulus source: http://www.codeavenger.com/2017/05/19/JavaScript-Modulo-operation-and-the-Caesar-Cipher.html

  Parameters

  • n: number
  • p: number

  Returns number

toDegrees

• toDegrees(radians): number

• Parameters

  • radians: number

  Returns number

toRadians

• toRadians(degree): number

• Parameters

  • degree: number

  Returns number

wrap

• wrap(degrees, max?): number

• general wrap function with arbitrary max value

  Parameters

  • degrees: number

    arbitrary value
  • max: number = 360

  Returns number

  degrees between -max..+max

wrap360

• wrap360(degrees): number

• source: https://github.com/chrisveness/geodesy/blob/master/dms.js

  Parameters

  • degrees: number

    arbitrary value

  Returns number

  degrees between 0..360
