The following FAA standard formulas with test cases passing have recently been implemented with more to follow. Click on the link to open the FPAssistant SDK documentation. WGS84CrsIntersect - Computes the coordinates where two geodesic curves intersect WGS84Destination - Computes destination point based on course and a static point WGS84Distance - Distance between two points [...]
A support question arrived asking about adding data into a spatial database, as it happens a article was written a while back on LinkedIn. In short, the GeoMapElements (Point, Circle, Line, Polygon, LineString, etc) are easily added to a spatial database using the method AsGeography(). The article describes how data contained in a Excel spreadsheet [...]
Geodetic Calculation Feature Improvement To expand on the existing geodetic capabilities of the FPAssistant Suite SDK and to comply with FAA Order 8260 the GeoCoordinate and GeoCoordinateBasic objects (Structs) now support geodetic calculations based on Appendix A. TERP Standard Formulas for Geodetic Solutions. As documented in the appendix, it states... >> Algorithms and methods are [...]
