NameDimensionTypeDescription
Cartesian-xDistanceReal NumberThe X component of the position vector of the anchor point with respect to object's central body fixed coordinate system.
Cartesian-yDistanceReal NumberThe Y component of the position vector of the anchor point with respect to object's central body fixed coordinate system.
Cartesian-zDistanceReal NumberThe Z component of the position vector of the anchor point with respect to object's central body fixed coordinate system.
Geodetic-LatLatitudeReal Number or TextThe detic latitude of the anchor point.
Geodetic-LonLongitudeReal Number or TextThe detic longitude of the anchor point.
Geodetic-AltDistanceReal NumberThe altitude value (i.e., magnitude of the relative position vector between the anchor point and its detic subpoint).
Geocentric-LatLatitudeReal Number or TextThe signed angle measured from the XY plane to the position vector of the anchor point, where positive angles are used for locations above the XY plane, and negative for those below.
Geocentric-LonLongitudeReal Number or TextThe signed angle measured from the X axis to the projection of the position vector of the anchor point into the XY plane of the object's central body fixed coordinate system. The angle increases in the direction found by the right hand rule about the Z axis.
Geocentric-AltDistanceReal NumberThe altitude value (i.e., magnitude of the relative position vector between the anchor point and its detic subpoint).
Spherical-LatLatitudeReal Number or TextThe signed angle measured from the XY plane to the position vector of the anchor point, where positive angles are used for locations above the XY plane, and negative for those below.
Spherical-LonLongitudeReal Number or TextThe signed angle measured from the X axis to the projection of the position vector of the anchor point into the XY plane of the object's central body fixed coordinate system. The angle increases in the direction found by the right hand rule about the Z axis.
Spherical-RadDistanceReal NumberThe magnitude of the position vector of the anchor point.
Cylindrical-RDistanceReal NumberThe radius value of the cylindrical coordinate representation of the position vector of the anchor point, where the cylinder's symmetry axis is the Z axis. Its value is the magnitude of the projection of the position vector of the anchor point into the XY plane of the object's central body fixed coordinate system.
Cylindrical-LonLongitudeReal Number or TextThe signed angle measured from the X axis to the projection of the position vector of the anchor point into the XY plane of the object's central body fixed coordinate system. The angle increases in the direction found by the right hand rule about the Z axis.
Cylindrical-ZDistanceReal NumberThe Z component of the position vector of the anchor point with respect to object's central body fixed coordinate system.
Alt AGLDistanceReal NumberThe altitude above ground level. The difference between the altitude and the terrain altitude. If no terrain is found at the detic subpoint, then the string "No Terrain" is returned.
Ground AltDistanceReal NumberThe altitude of the ground.
Terrain AltDistanceReal Number or TextThe terrain altitude. The altitude of the terrain located at the detic subpoint's latitude and longitude, measured from the object's central body surface along the surface normal through the detic subpoint. If no terrain is found at the detic subpoint, then the string "No Terrain" is returned.
Alt MSLDistanceReal NumberThe altitude above mean sea level. The difference between the altitude and the height of mean sea level, measured from the object's central body surface along the surface normal through the detic subpoint.
Ground Alt MSLDistanceReal NumberThe altitude of the ground, expressed with respect to mean sea level.
UTM ZoneUnitlessTextThe UTM Zone character indicator for the anchor point. Available only when the central body is Earth.
UTM EastingDistanceReal NumberThe easting value within the UTM zone for the anchor point. Available only when the central body is Earth.
UTM NorthingDistanceReal NumberThe northing value within the UTM zone for the anchor point. Available only when the central body is Earth.
MGRS CellUnitlessTextThe MGRS (Military Grid Reference System) code for the cell area containing the anchor point. Available only when the central body is Earth.
