Class TLcdLonLatHeightBuffer

All Implemented Interfaces:
ILcdBounded, ILcdPointList, ILcdShape, ILcd2DEditablePointList, ILcd2DEditableShape, ILcd3DEditablePointList, ILcd3DEditableShape, ILcdCache, ILcdCloneable, Serializable, Cloneable

public class TLcdLonLatHeightBuffer extends ALcd3DEditableShape implements ILcd3DEditablePointList, ILcdCache, Cloneable
This class represents a buffer around a polyline on an ellipsoid, with a given width and height. The buffer forms a connected series of rectangular prisms.

  • The buffer's width is from the axis to the edge of the buffer on both sides, so the buffer is 2 * width wide.
  • The buffer's height is from the bottom to the top of the buffer, half of the height above the axis, half beneath.
A height buffer

All longitude/latitude coordinates are expressed in degrees. Lengths are expressed in meters.

For efficiency reasons the current implementation works with a spherical approximation where the radius of the sphere is the major axis of the ellipsoid. If no ellipsoid is specified at the construction of the TLcdLonLatHeightBuffer object the default ellipsoid is used.

This class is thread-safe for concurrent read-only access of its contents. For read-write access, external locking must be used. Such locking is typically done at the model level.

For a more flexible 3D buffer, see TLcdLonLatHeightVariableGeoBuffer.
