ComputeCartographicWithAltitudeAndGranularity 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.

Altitude: The altitude of the triangulation. When 0, the mesh is computed to conform to the ellipsoid.

Granularity: The angular separation, in radians, of positions in the triangulation. Lower granularities are more precise but create more triangles.

PositionsWindingOrder: The winding order of positions.

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

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.

Altitude

The altitude of the triangulation. When 0, the mesh is computed to conform to the ellipsoid.

Granularity

The angular separation, in radians, of positions in the triangulation. Lower granularities are more precise but create more triangles.

PositionsWindingOrder

Member	Value	Description
eStkGraphicsWindingOrderCounterClockwise	0	Positions or triangles are defined in counter-clockwise order.
eStkGraphicsWindingOrderClockwise	1	Positions or triangles are defined in clockwise order.
eStkGraphicsWindingOrderCompute	2	The winding order is unknown and should be computed. For best performance, only use this value if you do not know the actual winding order.

The winding order of positions.
