RectangleOutlineGeometry

RectangleOutlineGeometry

new

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

Parameters:
Name Type Argument Default Description
options.rectangle Rectangle A cartographic rectangle with north, south, east and west properties in radians.
options.ellipsoid Ellipsoid <optional>
Ellipsoid.WGS84 The ellipsoid on which the rectangle 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 rectangle, in radians. A positive rotation is counter-clockwise.
options.extrudedHeight Number <optional>
Height of extruded 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.
  • DeveloperError : options.rectangle.east must be greater than rectangle.west.
Example
var rectangle = new Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry({
  ellipsoid : Cesium.Ellipsoid.WGS84,
  rectangle : Cesium.Rectangle.fromDegrees(-80.0, 39.0, -74.0, 42.0),
  height : 10000.0
});
var geometry = Cesium.RectangleOutlineGeometry.createGeometry(rectangle);
