Radar3DCoordinateSystem


Hello again,

I have had success with using Radar2DCoordinateSystem, but am having a hard time with its 3D cousin.

if I construct a Radar3DCoordinateSystem with:

latitude: 32
longitude: -113
altitude: 0

Radar3DCoordinateSystem r3D = new Radar3DCoordinateSystem(32.0f, -113.0f, 0.0f)

and I want to get the lat/lon/alt for a target at:

range: 100000m
azimuth: 90deg
elev: 2.0deg

double[][] targetCoordsRanAzElev = { {100000.0}, {90.0}, {2.0} };

and I use the toReference() method:

r3D.toReference(targetCoordsRanAzElev)

The values that I get back are the initial lat and lon (32, -113) and a different height.

Am I not using this class correctly? I tried reading through the RadarAdapter.java code to see how Radar3DCoordinateSystem is used, but the toReference() (nor the fromRefernce()) method is not called.

FWIW, my ScalarMaps are the following:

    latMap = new ScalarMap(RealType.Latitude, Display.YAxis);
    lonMap = new ScalarMap(RealType.Longitude, Display.XAxis);
    altMap = new ScalarMap(RealType.Altitude, Display.ZAxis);

Thank you very much!

-kevin.
