CoordinateTransform.Init() Method
Initializes the transformation for the given geodetic latitude and sidereal time.
Syntax
CoordinateTransform.Init(Latitude, SiderealTime)
The method syntax has these parts:
Part |
Description |
Latitude (Double) |
geodetic latitude for the transformation, degrees, positive north |
SiderealTime (Double) |
local sidereal time for the transformation, hours |
Return (Nothing) |
Does not return a value. |
Remarks
Updates the transformation for a new set of latitude and sidereal time parameters. No recalculation is performed since it is indeterminate which coordinates (equatorial or topocentric) are the dependent versus the independent variables. You must set one of the coordinate properties to force a recalculation. You can set a property to its current value to do this.
