Function Documentation

Vec3d greatCircleIntersection	(	const Vec3d &	p1,
		const Vec3d &	p2,
		const Vec3d &	p3,
		const Vec3d &	p4,
		bool &	ok
	)

Compute the intersection of 2 great circles segments.

Parameters:

ok	is set to false if no intersection was found.

Returns:

the intersection point on the sphere (normalized) if ok is true, or undefined of ok is false.

Vec3d greatCircleIntersection	(	const Vec3d &	p1,
		const Vec3d &	p2,
		const Vec3d &	nHalfSpace,
		bool &	ok
	)

Compute the intersection of a great circles segment with another great circle.

Parameters:

ok	is set to false if no intersection was found.

Returns:

the intersection point on the sphere (normalized) if ok is true, or undefined of ok is false.

bool sideHalfSpaceContains	(	const Vec3d &	v1,
		const Vec3d &	v2,
		const Vec3d &	p
	)		[inline]

Return whether the halfspace defined by the vectors v1^v2 and with aperture 90 deg contains the point p.

The comparison is made with a double number slightly smaller than zero to avoid floating point precision errors problems (one test fails if it is set to zero).
