Interface GeoOrigin

All Superinterfaces:
X3DNode
All Known Implementing Classes:
GeoOriginObject
public interface GeoOrigin
extends X3DNode
GeoOrigin is deprecated and discouraged (but nevertheless allowed) in X3D version 3.3. GeoOrigin is restored in X3D version 4.0 for special use on devices with limited floating-point resolution.

X3D node tooltip: [X3DNode] GeoOrigin specifies local geospatial coordinate system for parent node, enabling increased geographic precision during scene rendering (by mitigating potential floating-point roundoff errors). GeoOrigin can be contained by other Geospatial component nodes, typically via DEF/USE to ensure consistency.
  • Hint: only one geospatial coordinate system is allowed per scene, thus DEF-ing and later USE-ing only one GeoOrigin node per scene is recommended.
  • Hint: X3D for Advanced Modeling (X3D4AM) slideset http://x3dgraphics.com/slidesets/X3dForAdvancedModeling/GeospatialComponentX3dEarth.pdf
  • Warning: requires X3D profile='Full' or else include <component name='Geospatial' level='1'/>
  • Warning: GeoOrigin is deprecated, discouraged and not legal in X3D v3.3. GeoOrigin can be ignored in X3D v3.2 and below.
  • Hint: GeoOrigin is likely to be restored in X3D v4.0 for special use on devices with limited floating-point resolution.

Package hint: This interface is defined by the X3D Java Language Binding Specification for the Scene Authoring Interface (SAI).
