EllipsoidGeodesicFindClosestPointOnCurve Method (Cartographic, Double)

Finds the closest point on the curve from the input point.

Namespace: AGI.Foundation.Geometry.Shapes
Assembly: AGI.Foundation.Core (in AGI.Foundation.Core.dll) Version: 24.2.419.0 (24.2.419.0)

Syntax

C++

Copy

public override Cartographic FindClosestPointOnCurve(
	Cartographic point,
	out double distance
)

Public Overrides Function FindClosestPointOnCurve ( 
	point As Cartographic,
	<OutAttribute> ByRef distance As Double
) As Cartographic

public:
virtual Cartographic FindClosestPointOnCurve(
	Cartographic point, 
	[OutAttribute] double% distance
) override

abstract FindClosestPointOnCurve : 
        point : Cartographic * 
        distance : float byref -> Cartographic 
override FindClosestPointOnCurve : 
        point : Cartographic * 
        distance : float byref -> Cartographic

Parameters

point: Type: AGI.Foundation.CoordinatesCartographic
The input point. The point will be on the ellipsoid surface at this location.
distance: Type: SystemDouble
The surface distance between the point and the point on the curve.

Return Value

Type: Cartographic
The closest point on the curve.

Remarks

The default implementation is a golden section search on the curve. The built-in types (geodesic, rhumb, and complex) have their own precise algorithms.
