A Circle interface is a high level interface for a Shape that represents a general circle in the 2D space. Each circle realizes this interface.

A circle cannot be instantiated directly. For more information please refer to CircleBy3Points.

Hierarchy

Constructors

Accessors

  • get bounds(): Bounds
  • The bounds of this shape. This property is to be treated in a read only manner. An error will be thrown when trying to assign to this property. Note that the bounds property is not immutable. Modifying properties of the bounds property may corrupt your data.

    Returns Bounds

  • get coordinateType(): CoordinateType
  • The coordinate type this shape. This property is read only. An Error will be thrown when trying to assign to this property.

    Returns CoordinateType

  • get focusPoint(): Point
  • The focus point of this shape. This property is read only. An error will be thrown when trying to assign to this property. This property contains an object but should be treated with value semantics: changes to the shape will not be reflected in the focusPoint that was retrieved from this Polygon before the modification.

    Returns Point

  • get radius(): number
  • The radius of this circle, in meters.

    Returns number

  • set radius(value): void
  • Parameters

    • value: number

    Returns void

  • get reference(): null | CoordinateReference
  • The spatial reference of this shape. This property is read only. An Error will be thrown when trying to assign to this property.

    Returns null | CoordinateReference

Methods

  • Determines whether a given point is inside this shape. This method checks containment only in two dimensions: on the (x,y)-axis or the (lon,lat)-axis (depending on the spatial reference of the shape).

    Parameters

    • x: number | Point | Bounds

      The point for which containment must be checked. If a 3D point is passed to this function, it will be treated as a 2D point: the z coordinate (height) will be ignored. The reference of this point must be the same reference as this Shape

    • Optional y: number

    Returns boolean

    true when the given point is contained in this shape

    Throws

    Point with another spatial reference

    Deprecated

    Please use contains2DPoint instead.

  • Determines whether the given point is inside this shape. This method checks containment only in two dimensions: on the (x,y)-axis or the (lon,lat)-axis (depending on the spatial reference of the shape).

    Parameters

    • x: number

      The x coordinate of the point for which containment must be checked

    • y: number

      The y coordinate of the point for which containment must be checked

    Returns boolean

    true when the given point is contained in this shape

    Throws

    Point with another spatial reference

  • Determines whether the given point is inside this shape. This method checks containment only in two dimensions: on the (x,y)-axis or the (lon,lat)-axis (depending on the spatial reference of the shape).

    Parameters

    • point: Point

      The point for which containment must be checked.

    Returns boolean

    true when the given point is contained in this shape

    Throws

    Point with another spatial reference

  • Indicates whether this shape is equal to another.

    Parameters

    • otherShape: Shape

      the other shape this shape is compared with.

    Returns boolean

    true if both shapes are equal, false otherwise.

  • Translates this shape so that its center ends up at the specified position.

    Parameters

    • x: number

      x coordinate value

    • y: number

      y coordinate value

    Returns void

  • Translates this shape so that its center ends up at the specified position.

    Parameters

    • point: Point

      The location to move too.

    Returns void

    Throws

    InvalidReferenceError when the reference of the Point parameter does not correspond with the reference of this Circle.

  • Converts the shape to a string. This functionality is for debugging purposes only. Results of toString cannot be used to uniquely identify a shape instance.

    Returns string

  • Translates the shape over the given vector in 2D space.

    Parameters

    • x: number

      The x coordinate of the translation vector

    • y: number

      The y coordinate of the translation vector

    Returns void
