    Detailed Description

    GeodesicEllipseParameters contains:

    • The desired type of output geometry: Multipoint, Polygon or Polyline.
    • The center point, which contains its spatial reference.
    • The length of the semi-major and semi-minor axes.
    • The linear unit used for lengths.
    • The direction of the semi-major axis (in angularUnit). By default, the angular unit is degrees.
    • The number of vertices in the ellipse.

    When creating a polygon or a polyline, the result may have more than one path, depending on the size of the ellipse and its position relative to the horizon of the coordinate system. When creating a polygon, the interior of the polygon is the interior of the ellipse, however, the boundary of the polygon may contain segments from the spatial reference horizon, or from the GCS extent. For example, an ellipse that spans the 180-degree meridian of the WGS-84 coordinate system will have two parts.

    The ellipse is generalized based on maxSegmentLength. The ellipse is created with a minimum of 10 vertices.

    When specifying the lengths of the semi-major and semi-minor axes, the larger value is considered to be the semi-major axis length.

    You can create a geodetic circle if the semiAxis1Length and semiAxis2Length are the same, or by setting semiAxis1Length to a valid length and setting semiAxis2Length to zero.

    If you specify zero for the length of both axis, the return geometry is:

    • For Multipoint: the center point.
    • For Polyline or Polygon: an empty geometry.

    This QML type supports the following default properties. A default property may be declared inside another declared object without being assigned explicitly to a property.
