Public propertyDescription
Gets or sets the long form of the identifying information about this location.
Public propertyEarthBasepointElevation
Gets or sets the point elevation on earth, in meters.
Public propertyEarthBasepointElevationZero
Gets or sets a value indicating the zero level convention relating to a location on Earth.
Public propertyEarthBasepointLatitude

0 = prime meridian (Greenwich meridian)

Values increase towards West

Public propertyModelBasePoint

Public propertyModelNorth
Earth directions in model coordinates.
Public propertyName
Gets or sets the short form of the identifying information about this location.

Methods
  NameDescription
Public methodDispose
Actively reclaims unmanaged resources that this instance uses.
Protected methodDispose(Boolean)
For derived class implementers.

This method is called with argument true when class user calls Dispose(), while with argument false when the Garbage Collector invokes the finalizer, or Finalize() method.

You must reclaim all used unmanaged resources in both cases, and can use this chance to call Dispose on disposable fields if the argument is true.

Also, you must call the base virtual method within your overriding method.

Public methodEarthLocationIsSet
Checks if the earth location is set or not.
Public methodEquals (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodFinalize
Passively reclaims unmanaged resources when the class user did not explicitly call Dispose().
(Overrides ObjectFinalize.)
Public methodGetEarthAnchorPlane
Returns the earth anchor plane
Public methodGetHashCode (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodGetModelCompass
Returns a plane in model coordinates whose X axis points East, Y axis points North and Z axis points Up. The origin is set to ModelBasepoint.
Public methodGetModelToEarthTransform
Gets a transformation from model coordinates to earth coordinates. This transformation assumes the model is small enough that the curvature of the earth can be ignored.
Public methodGetType (Inherited from Object.)
Protected methodMemberwiseClone (Inherited from Object.)
Public methodToString (Inherited from Object.)
