AREA_UNIT	An AreaUnit, used when measuring areas of two-dimensional geometries such as Polygons or Envelopes.
LINEAR_UNIT	A LinearUnit, used when measuring distances or lengths of one-dimensional geometries such as Polylines.
UNKNOWN	Unknown units of measurement.

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description

Enum Constant Detail

LINEAR_UNIT

public static final UnitType LINEAR_UNIT

A LinearUnit, used when measuring distances or lengths of one-dimensional geometries such as Polylines. LinearUnits are also used to define coordinates in projected coordinate systems such as Web Mercator Auxiliary Sphere.

See Also:

GeometryEngine.distanceBetween(Geometry, Geometry), GeometryEngine.length(Polyline), SpatialReference.isProjected(), SpatialReferences.getWebMercator()

ANGULAR_UNIT

public static final UnitType ANGULAR_UNIT

An AngularUnit, used to define coordinates in geographic coordinate systems such as WGS 1984. Angular units are also used to define angles when creating geometries, for example in the method LineSegment.createLineAtAngleFromPoint(com.esri.arcgisruntime.geometry.Point, double, double).

See Also:

SpatialReference.isGeographic(), SpatialReferences.getWgs84()

AREA_UNIT

public static final UnitType AREA_UNIT

An AreaUnit, used when measuring areas of two-dimensional geometries such as Polygons or Envelopes.

See Also:

GeometryEngine.area(Polygon), GeometryEngine.area(Envelope)

UNKNOWN

public static final UnitType UNKNOWN

Unknown units of measurement.

Method Detail

values

public static UnitType[] values()

Returns an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared. This method may be used to iterate over the constants as follows:

for (UnitType c : UnitType.values())
    System.out.println(c);

Returns:

an array containing the constants of this enum type, in the order they are declared

valueOf

public static UnitType valueOf(String name)

Returns the enum constant of this type with the specified name. The string must match exactly an identifier used to declare an enum constant in this type. (Extraneous whitespace characters are not permitted.)

Parameters:

name - the name of the enum constant to be returned.

Returns:

the enum constant with the specified name

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if this enum type has no constant with the specified name

NullPointerException - if the argument is null
