Class BilinearTerrainInterpolator

java.lang.Object

agi.foundation.terrain.TerrainInterpolator<TerrainPosts>

agi.foundation.terrain.RasterTerrainInterpolator

agi.foundation.terrain.BilinearTerrainInterpolator

public class BilinearTerrainInterpolator
extends RasterTerrainInterpolator

An interpolator that determines a terrain height by bilinearly interpolating the four surrounding posts. The interpolation is linear in directions pointing along lines of longitude or latitude and is quadratic in all other directions.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method and Description
FirstPartialsOfHeight	interpolateFirstPartials(TerrainPosts data, double longitude, double latitude) Interpolates the first order partial derivatives of terrain height with respect to longitude and latitude and returns the value at the specified location based on the given terrain data.
double	interpolateHeight(TerrainPosts data, double longitude, double latitude) Interpolates the height at a particular longitude and latitude from given terrain data.
SecondPartialsOfHeight	interpolateSecondPartials(TerrainPosts data, double longitude, double latitude) Interpolates the second order (mixed) partial derivatives of terrain height with respect to longitude and latitude and returns the value at the specified location based on the given terrain data.

interpolateHeight

public double interpolateHeight(TerrainPosts data,
                                double longitude,
                                double latitude)

Description copied from class: TerrainInterpolator

Interpolates the height at a particular longitude and latitude from given terrain data.

Specified by:

interpolateHeight in class TerrainInterpolator<TerrainPosts>

Parameters:

data - The terrain data.

longitude - The longitude, in the native units of the terrain provider.

latitude - The latitude, in the native units of the terrain provider.

Returns:

The interpolated height, in the native units of the terrain provider.

Description copied from class: TerrainInterpolator

Interpolates the first order partial derivatives of terrain height with respect to longitude and latitude and returns the value at the specified location based on the given terrain data.

Note that the interpolation scheme may permit discontinuities along the boundaries of each terrain cell.

Specified by:

interpolateFirstPartials in class TerrainInterpolator<TerrainPosts>

Parameters:

data - The terrain data to use when evaluating the height.

longitude - The longitude, in native units.

latitude - The latitude, in native units.

Returns:

The first order partial derivatives, in native units.

Description copied from class: TerrainInterpolator

Interpolates the second order (mixed) partial derivatives of terrain height with respect to longitude and latitude and returns the value at the specified location based on the given terrain data.

Note that the interpolation scheme may permit discontinuities along the boundaries of each terrain cell.

Specified by:

interpolateSecondPartials in class TerrainInterpolator<TerrainPosts>

Parameters:

data - The terrain data to use when evaluating the height.

longitude - The longitude, in native units.

latitude - The latitude, in native units.

Returns:
