LongLatEast Method

Returns a LongLat that represents a position the specified distance East of this.

Namespace: DegreeDays.Geo
Assembly: DegreeDays (in DegreeDays.dll) Version: 1.4
Syntax
public LongLat East(
	Distance distance
)

Parameters

distance  Distance
A distance indicating how far East of this the returned LongLat position should be. (Or how far West if distance is negative.)

Return Value

LongLat
A LongLat that represents a position the specified distance East of this.
Remarks

If distance is negative, the returned LongLat will represent a position West of this.

Unlike movements North and South, movements East and West are not capped. In theory one can travel around the earth an infinite number of times, going only in an easterly direction. However, movements East and West are essentially meaningless at the two poles since the latitude is fixed at +90 or -90, which fixes the position to the pole itself.
