    • Method Detail

      • getAzimuth

        public double getAzimuth()
        Get the azimuth.

        The azimuth is the angle between the North direction at local point and the projection in local horizontal plane of the direction from local point to given point. Azimuth angles are counted clockwise, i.e positive towards the East.

        Returns:
        azimuth
      • getElevation

        public double getElevation()
        Get the elevation.

        The elevation is the angle between the local horizontal and the direction from local point to given point.

        Returns:
        elevation
      • getRange

        public double getRange()
        Get the range.
        Returns:
        range
