Computes the azimuth angle (clockwise from North) for the great circle path between this location and a specified location. This angle can be used as the starting azimuth for a great circle path beginning at this location, and passing through the specified location. This function uses a spherical model, not elliptical.

greatCircleDistance

fun greatCircleDistance(location: Location): Double

Computes the angular distance of the great circle path between this location and a specified location. In radians, this angle is the arc length of the segment between the two locations. To compute a distance in meters from this value, multiply the return value by the radius of the globe. This function uses a spherical model, not elliptical.

greatCircleLocation

fun greatCircleLocation(azimuth: Angle, distanceRadians: Double, result: Location): Location

Computes the location on the great circle path starting at this location and traversing with the specified azimuth and angular distance. This function uses a spherical model, not elliptical.

interpolateAlongPath

fun interpolateAlongPath(endLocation: Location, pathType: PathType, amount: Double, result: Location): Location

Compute a location along a path between two locations. The amount indicates the fraction of the path at which to compute a location. This value is typically between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates the begin location (this location) and 1 indicates the end location.

fun interpolateAlongPath(endPosition: Position, pathType: PathType, amount: Double, result: Position): Position

Compute a position along a path between two positions. The amount indicates the fraction of the path at which to compute a position. This value is typically between 0 and 1, where 0 indicates the begin position (this position) and 1 indicates the end position.

linearAzimuth

fun linearAzimuth(location: Location): Angle

Computes the azimuth angle (clockwise from North) for the linear path between this location and a specified location. This angle can be used as the starting azimuth for a linear path beginning at this location, and passing through the specified location. This function uses a flat-earth approximation proximal to this location.

linearDistance

fun linearDistance(location: Location): Double

Computes the angular distance of the linear path between this location and a specified location. In radians, this angle is the arc length of the segment between the two locations. To compute a distance in meters from this value, multiply the return value by the radius of the globe. This function uses a flat-earth approximation proximal to this location.

linearLocation

fun linearLocation(azimuth: Angle, distanceRadians: Double, result: Location): Location

Computes the location on the linear path starting at this location and traversing with the specified azimuth and angular distance. This function uses a flat-earth approximation proximal to this location.

rhumbAzimuth

fun rhumbAzimuth(location: Location): Angle

Computes the azimuth angle (clockwise from North) for the rhumb path (line of constant azimuth) between this location and a specified location. This angle can be used as the starting azimuth for a rhumb path beginning at this location, and passing through the specified location. This function uses a spherical model, not elliptical.

rhumbDistance

fun rhumbDistance(location: Location): Double

Computes the angular distance of the rhumb path (line of constant azimuth) between this location and a specified location.
