static double geos::algorithm::Angle::angle	(	const geom::Coordinate &	p0,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p1
	)

static

Returns the angle of the vector from p0 to p1, relative to the positive X-axis.

The angle is normalized to be in the range [ -Pi, Pi ].

Returns: the normalized angle (in radians) that p0-p1 makes with the positive x-axis.

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::angle ( const geom::Coordinate & p )

static

Returns the angle that the vector from (0,0) to p, relative to the positive X-axis.

The angle is normalized to be in the range ( -Pi, Pi ].

Returns: the normalized angle (in radians) that p makes with the positive x-axis.

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::angleBetween	(	const geom::Coordinate &	tip1,
		const geom::Coordinate &	tail,
		const geom::Coordinate &	tip2
	)

static

Returns the unoriented smallest angle between two vectors.

The computed angle will be in the range [0, Pi).

Parameters

tip1	the tip of one vector
tail	the tail of each vector
tip2	the tip of the other vector

Returns: the angle between tail-tip1 and tail-tip2

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::angleBetweenOriented	(	const geom::Coordinate &	tip1,
		const geom::Coordinate &	tail,
		const geom::Coordinate &	tip2
	)

static

Returns the oriented smallest angle between two vectors.

The computed angle will be in the range (-Pi, Pi]. A positive result corresponds to a counterclockwise rotation from v1 to v2; a negative result corresponds to a clockwise rotation.

Parameters

tip1	the tip of v1
tail	the tail of each vector
tip2	the tip of v2

Returns: the angle between v1 and v2, relative to v1

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::diff	(	double	ang1,
		double	ang2
	)

static

Computes the unoriented smallest difference between two angles.

The angles are assumed to be normalized to the range [-Pi, Pi]. The result will be in the range [0, Pi].

Parameters

ang1	the angle of one vector (in [-Pi, Pi] )
ang2	the angle of the other vector (in range [-Pi, Pi] )

Returns: the angle (in radians) between the two vectors (in range [0, Pi] )

static int geos::algorithm::Angle::getTurn	(	double	ang1,
		double	ang2
	)

static

Returns whether an angle must turn clockwise or counterclockwise to overlap another angle.

Parameters

ang1	an angle (in radians)
ang2	an angle (in radians)

Returns: whether a1 must turn CLOCKWISE, COUNTERCLOCKWISE or NONE to overlap a2.

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::interiorAngle	(	const geom::Coordinate &	p0,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p1,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p2
	)

static

Computes the interior angle between two segments of a ring.

The ring is assumed to be oriented in a clockwise direction. The computed angle will be in the range [0, 2Pi]

Parameters

p0	a point of the ring
p1	the next point of the ring
p2	the next point of the ring

Returns: the interior angle based at p1

static bool geos::algorithm::Angle::isAcute	(	const geom::Coordinate &	p0,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p1,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p2
	)

static

Tests whether the angle between p0-p1-p2 is acute.

An angle is acute if it is less than 90 degrees.

Note: this implementation is not precise (determistic) for angles very close to 90 degrees.

Parameters

p0	an endpoint of the angle
p1	the base of the angle
p2	the other endpoint of the angle

static bool geos::algorithm::Angle::isObtuse	(	const geom::Coordinate &	p0,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p1,
		const geom::Coordinate &	p2
	)

static

Tests whether the angle between p0-p1-p2 is obtuse.

An angle is obtuse if it is greater than 90 degrees.

Note: this implementation is not precise (determistic) for angles very close to 90 degrees.

Parameters

p0	an endpoint of the angle
p1	the base of the angle
p2	the other endpoint of the angle

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::normalize ( double angle )

static

Computes the normalized value of an angle, which is the equivalent angle in the range ( -Pi, Pi ].

Parameters

angle the angle to normalize

Returns: an equivalent angle in the range (-Pi, Pi]

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::normalizePositive ( double angle )

static

Computes the normalized positive value of an angle, which is the equivalent angle in the range [ 0, 2*Pi ).

E.g.:

normalizePositive(0.0) = 0.0
normalizePositive(-PI) = PI
normalizePositive(-2PI) = 0.0
normalizePositive(-3PI) = PI
normalizePositive(-4PI) = 0
normalizePositive(PI) = PI
normalizePositive(2PI) = 0.0
normalizePositive(3PI) = PI
normalizePositive(4PI) = 0.0

Parameters

angle the angle to normalize, in radians

Returns: an equivalent positive angle

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::toDegrees ( double radians )

static

Converts from radians to degrees.

Parameters

radians an angle in radians

Returns: the angle in degrees

static double geos::algorithm::Angle::toRadians ( double angleDegrees )

static

Converts from degrees to radians.

Parameters

angleDegrees an angle in degrees

Returns: the angle in radians
