• #to_utm ⇒ Geom::UTM

  The to_utm method converts a LatLong object to a UTM object.

Constructor Details

#initialize ⇒ Geom::LatLong #initialize(latlong) ⇒ Geom::LatLong #initialize(latlong_array) ⇒ Geom::LatLong #initialize(lat, long) ⇒ Geom::LatLong

The new method creates a LatLong object.

Examples:

ll = [40.01700, 105.28300]
latlong = Geom::LatLong.new(ll)
if (latlong)
  UI.messagebox(latlong)
else
  UI.messagebox("Failure")
end

Overloads:

• #initialize ⇒ Geom::LatLong
• #initialize(latlong) ⇒ Geom::LatLong

  Parameters:

  • latlong (Geom::LatLong)
• #initialize(latlong_array) ⇒ Geom::LatLong

  Parameters:

  • latlong_array (Array(Numeric, Numeric))
• #initialize(lat, long) ⇒ Geom::LatLong

  Parameters:

  • lat (Numeric)
  • long (Numeric)

Version:

• SketchUp 6.0

Instance Method Details

#latitude ⇒ Float

The Latitude method retrieves the latitude coordinate from a LatLong object.

Examples:

ll = [40.01700, 105.28300]
latlong = Geom::LatLong.new(ll)
latitude = latlong.latitude
if (latitude)
  UI.messagebox(latitude)
else
  UI.messagebox("Failure")
end

Returns:

• (Float) —

  a latitude coordinate value

Version:

• SketchUp 6.0

#longitude ⇒ Float

The Latitude method retrieves the longitude coordinate from a LatLong object.

Examples:

ll = [40.01700, 105.28300]
latlong = Geom::LatLong.new(ll)
longitude = latlong.longitude
if (longitude)
  UI.messagebox(longitude)
else
  UI.messagebox("Failure")
end

Returns:

• (Float) —

  a latitude coordinate value

Version:

• SketchUp 6.0

#to_a ⇒ Array(Float, Float)

The #to_a method converts a LatLong object to an array of two values.

Examples:

latlong = Geom::LatLong.new([40.01700, 105.28300])
array = latlong.to_a

Returns:

• (Array(Float, Float)) —

  an array of latitude and longitude

Version:

• SketchUp 6.0

#to_s ⇒ String

The #to_s method converts a LatLong object to a String.

Examples:

latlong = Geom::LatLong.new([40.01700, 105.28300])
string = latlong.to_s

Returns:

• (String)

Version:

• SketchUp 6.0

#to_utm ⇒ Geom::UTM

The to_utm method converts a LatLong object to a UTM object.

Examples:

ll = [40.01700, 105.28300]
latlong = Geom::LatLong.new(ll)
utm = latlong.to_utm
if (utm)
  UI.messagebox(utm)
else
  UI.messagebox("Failure")
end

Returns:

• (Geom::UTM)
