RectangleOutlineGeometry

new Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry(options)

A description of the outline of a a cartographic rectangle on an ellipsoid centered at the origin.
Name Type Description
options Object Object with the following properties:
Name Type Default Description
rectangle Rectangle A cartographic rectangle with north, south, east and west properties in radians.
ellipsoid Ellipsoid Ellipsoid.WGS84 optional The ellipsoid on which the rectangle lies.
granularity Number CesiumMath.RADIANS_PER_DEGREE optional The distance, in radians, between each latitude and longitude. Determines the number of positions in the buffer.
height Number 0.0 optional The distance in meters between the rectangle and the ellipsoid surface.
rotation Number 0.0 optional The rotation of the rectangle, in radians. A positive rotation is counter-clockwise.
extrudedHeight Number optional The distance in meters between the rectangle's extruded face and the ellipsoid surface.
Throws:
  • DeveloperError : options.rectangle.north must be in the interval [-Pi/2, Pi/2].
  • DeveloperError : options.rectangle.south must be in the interval [-Pi/2, Pi/2].
  • DeveloperError : options.rectangle.east must be in the interval [-Pi, Pi].
  • DeveloperError : options.rectangle.west must be in the interval [-Pi, Pi].
  • DeveloperError : options.rectangle.north must be greater than rectangle.south.
Example:
const rectangle = new Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry({
  ellipsoid : Cesium.Ellipsoid.WGS84,
  rectangle : Cesium.Rectangle.fromDegrees(-80.0, 39.0, -74.0, 42.0),
  height : 10000.0
});
const geometry = Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry.createGeometry(rectangle);

Members

static Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry.packedLength : Number

The number of elements used to pack the object into an array.

Methods

static Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry.createGeometry(rectangleGeometry)Geometry|undefined

Computes the geometric representation of an outline of a rectangle, including its vertices, indices, and a bounding sphere.
Name Type Description
rectangleGeometry RectangleOutlineGeometry A description of the rectangle outline.
Returns:
The computed vertices and indices.
Throws:

static Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry.pack(value, array, startingIndex)Array.<Number>

Stores the provided instance into the provided array.
Name Type Default Description
value RectangleOutlineGeometry The value to pack.
array Array.<Number> The array to pack into.
startingIndex Number 0 optional The index into the array at which to start packing the elements.
Returns:
The array that was packed into

static Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry.unpack(array, startingIndex, result)RectangleOutlineGeometry

Retrieves an instance from a packed array.
Name Type Default Description
array Array.<Number> The packed array.
startingIndex Number 0 optional The starting index of the element to be unpacked.
result RectangleOutlineGeometry optional The object into which to store the result.
Returns:
The modified result parameter or a new Quaternion instance if one was not provided.
