Class IlpGeographicPosition

java.lang.Object

ilog.cpl.network.IlpGeographicPosition

All Implemented Interfaces:

IlpPosition

public class IlpGeographicPosition
extends Object
implements IlpPosition

This class describes a point on the surface of the earth, identified by longitude and latitude information.

Example: The position of Washington is new IlpGeographicPosition("39D11'N","76D51'W").

Glossary: latitude/longitude.

Note:

• Positions of this type are supported if the network position converter has been set to an IlpGeographicPositionConverter.
• An IlvCoordinateTransformationException is thrown in case of incorrect latitude and longitude values. These values can be verified prior to creating an IlpGeographicPosition by calling the method IlvProjectionUtil.DMSToRadian, catching exceptions of type IlvCoordinateTransformationException and ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException, and performing a range check on the resulting number.

Since:

JTGO 3.0
