SurfaceShapesComputeEllipseCartographic Method (CentralBody, Cartographic, Double, Double, Double, Double)

For convenience. Computes boundary positions for an ellipse on the specified centralBody using a Cartographic center. Longitude and latitude are in radians, and altitude is in meters. This is equivalent to converting center to Cartesian and calling ComputeEllipse(CentralBody, Cartesian, Double, Double, Double, Double)

public static SurfaceShapesResult ComputeEllipseCartographic(
	CentralBody centralBody,
	Cartographic center,
	double majorAxisRadius,
	double minorAxisRadius,
	double bearing,
	double granularity
)

Parameters

centralBody
Type: AGI.Foundation.CelestialCentralBody
The central body to compute the ellipse on.
center
Type: AGI.Foundation.CoordinatesCartographic
The center of the ellipse, in the centralBody's fixed reference frame.
majorAxisRadius
Type: SystemDouble
The radius of the ellipse's major axis, in meters.
minorAxisRadius
Type: SystemDouble
The radius of the ellipse's minor axis, in meters.
bearing
Type: SystemDouble
An angle, in radians, measured clockwise from north.
granularity
Type: SystemDouble
The angular separation, in radians, of positions along the boundary.

Return Value

Type: SurfaceShapesResult
A SurfaceShapesResult object representing the boundary of the ellipse, in the centralBody's fixed reference frame.
