Remarks

The SoVRMLGeoLocation allows to place a non-georeferenced model at its correct geospatial location.

VRML X3D SPECIFICATION

This section describes the expected behavior of the node in a conforming X3D / VRML97 browser application. In some cases, the application is responsible for implementing portions of the expected behavior. Open Inventor viewer classes and IVF classes implement some of the application behaviors.

This section may reference portions of the X3D specification that are not present in this help file. The complete X3D spec is available at http://www.web3d.org.

The SoVRMLGeoLocation node provides the ability to geo-reference any standard X3D model. That is, to take an ordinary X3D model, contained within the children field of the node, and to specify its geospatial location. This node is a grouping node that can be thought of as a Transform node. However, the GeoLocation node specifies an absolute location, not a relative one, so content developers should not nest GeoLocation nodes within each other. The geoOrigin field is used to specify a local coordinate frame for extended precision as described in 25.2.5 Dealing with high-precision coordinates. The geoSystem field is used to define the spatial reference frame and is described in 25.2.3 Specifying a spatial reference frame. The geometry of the nodes in children is to be specified in units of meters in X3D coordinates relative to the location specified by the geoCoords field. The geoCoords field should be provided in the format described in 25.2.3 Specifying a spatial reference frame. The geoCoords field can be used to dynamically update the geospatial location of the model.
