Member Function Documentation

distance()

static double TSL3DHelper::distance ( const TSL3DCoord & coord1, const TSL3DCoord & coord2 )

static

Calculates the distance in metres between two 3D points

Parameters

coord1	position to calculate distance from
coord2	position to calculate distance to

rotate()

static bool TSL3DHelper::rotate ( TSL3DCoord & point, const TSL3DCoord & rotationPoint, double angle )

static

Rotate a point.

The angle is specified in radians, with positive values indicating an anti-clockwise rotation. The rotation is performed about the vector from the centre of the earth to the point specified by rotationPoint.

Parameters

point	the coordinate to rotate
angle	angle for rotation (in radians)
rotationPoint	the point around which the rotation is performed.

Returns

true if the rotation has been performed successfully. False otherwise.

squareDistance()

static double TSL3DHelper::squareDistance ( const TSL3DCoord & coord1, const TSL3DCoord & coord2 )

static

Calculates the square distance in metres between two 3D points

Parameters

coord1	position to calculate square distance from
coord2	position to calculate square distance to

translate() [1/2]

static bool TSL3DHelper::translate ( TSL3DBoundingBox & bBox, double dx, double dy, double dz )

static

Translate the given bounding box.

Parameters

bBox	bounding box to translate
dx	delta in x dimension
dy	delta in y dimension
dz	delta in z dimension

translate() [2/2]

static bool TSL3DHelper::translate ( TSL3DCoord & coord, double dx, double dy, double dz )

static

Translate a coordinate.

Parameters

coord	coordinate to translate
dx	delta in x dimension
dy	delta in y dimension
dz	delta in z dimension
