ExtentOutlineGeometry

ExtentOutlineGeometry

new

A description of the outline of a a cartographic extent on an ellipsoid centered at the origin.

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
options.extent Extent A cartographic extent with north, south, east and west properties in radians.
options.ellipsoid Ellipsoid <optional>
Ellipsoid.WGS84 The ellipsoid on which the extent lies.
options.granularity Number <optional>
CesiumMath.RADIANS_PER_DEGREE The distance, in radians, between each latitude and longitude. Determines the number of positions in the buffer.
options.height Number <optional>
0.0 The height from the surface of the ellipsoid.
options.rotation Number <optional>
0.0 The rotation of the extent, in radians. A positive rotation is counter-clockwise.
options.extrudedHeight Number <optional>
Height of extruded surface.
Throws:
  • DeveloperError : options.extent is required and must have north, south, east and west attributes.
  • DeveloperError : options.extent.north must be in the interval [-Pi/2, Pi/2].
  • DeveloperError : options.extent.south must be in the interval [-Pi/2, Pi/2].
  • DeveloperError : options.extent.east must be in the interval [-Pi, Pi].
  • DeveloperError : options.extent.west must be in the interval [-Pi, Pi].
  • DeveloperError : options.extent.north must be greater than extent.south.
  • DeveloperError : options.extent.east must be greater than extent.west.
Example
var extent = new ExtentOutlineGeometry({
  ellipsoid : Ellipsoid.WGS84,
  extent : Extent.fromDegrees(-80.0, 39.0, -74.0, 42.0),
  height : 10000.0
});
var geometry = ExtentOutlineGeometry.createGeometry(extent);

Methods

<static>

Computes the geometric representation of an outline of an extent, including its vertices, indices, and a bounding sphere.

Parameters:
Name Type Description
extentGeometry ExtentOutlineGeometry A description of the extent outline.
Throws:
DeveloperError : Rotated extent is invalid.
Returns:
Geometry The computed vertices and indices.
