Position Class Reference

Class to wrap x and y coordinates to positions. Independent of coordinate systems. First/x value is always the easting. Second/y value is always the northing. implements serializable and can be passed via intents.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Position() [1/2]

Position	(	double	x,
		double	y
	)

Creates a new position object. If you need to create a WGS84 position rather use

See also

createWGS84Position. It takes the position values in lat/long order.

Parameters

x	easting.
y	northing.

createWGS84Position() [1/2]

static Position createWGS84Position ( double  latitude, double  longitude  )

The same as creating an object by the constructor but the naming helps to set the x and y valus as Latitude / Longitude correctly

Parameters

latitude	to create position with
longitude	to create position with

Returns

the wgs84 position
