Field Details

GREATCIRCLE

public static final TLcdLineType GREATCIRCLE

A line along a great circle. A great circle is the intersection of the Earth's surface, approximated by a sphere, and any plane passing through the center point of that sphere.

RHUMBLINE

public static final TLcdLineType RHUMBLINE

A line that follows constant bearing on the Earth's surface. It crosses all meridians of the earth at the same angle.

GEODETIC

public static final TLcdLineType GEODETIC

A line that is the shortest path between the two points it connects, on the Earth's surface. In case the Earth is approximated by a sphere, this is the same as a great circle line.

CARTESIAN

public static final TLcdLineType CARTESIAN

A line with linear interpolation between the two points it connects, in cartesian space.
