ComputeCartographic Method (IAgStkGraphicsSurfacePolygonTriangulatorInitializer)
See Also  Example
CentralBody
The central body to compute the triangulation on.
Positions
An array containing positions defining the boundary of the polygon to triangulate, provided in the order latitude, longitude, altitude.

Description

For convenience. Computes the triangulation on the specified centralBody for a polygon whose boundary is defined by the specified Cartographic positions. Longitude and latitude are in radians, and altitude is in meters. This is equivalent to converting each position in positions to Cartesian and calling Compute

Syntax

[Visual Basic .NET] 
Public Function ComputeCartographic( _
   ByVal CentralBody As String, _
   ByRef Positions() As Variant _
) As IAgStkGraphicsSurfaceTriangulatorResult

Parameters

CentralBody
The central body to compute the triangulation on.
Positions
An array containing positions defining the boundary of the polygon to triangulate, provided in the order latitude, longitude, altitude.

Example

Shows the format of the Positions parameter when computing using a surface polygon triangulator.
