IGeographicCoordinateSystem2.GetGCSParams Method

Returns the 180 degrees equivalent and horizon delta in proper GCS units.

[Visual Basic .NET]
Public Sub GetGCSParams ( _
    ByRef p_180 As Double, _
    ByRef pDelta As Double _
)
[C#]
public void GetGCSParams (
    ref double p_180,
    ref double pDelta
);
[C++]
HRESULT GetGCSParams(
  double* p_180,
  double* pDelta
);
[C++]

Parameters p_180 [out] p_180 is a parameter of type double pDelta [out] pDelta is a parameter of type double

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Description

GetGCSParams calculates the edge of the horizon for a geographic coordinate system. For example, if your coordinate system is in decimal degrees, 180 is returned. If the units are in grads, 200 is returned. It also returns a delta, a small offset value, in the correct unit of measure.
