MapViewUtils.extractSphericalCoordinatesFromLocation() function

Gets the spherical coordinates in radian of the object to the coordinates of point.

Note: this method can be used to get the direction that an object points to, when location is the target of that object, by adding PI to it. Otherwise it only returns the spherical coordinates of object in the tangent space of location.

Signature:

function extractSphericalCoordinatesFromLocation(mapView: {
        projection: Projection;
    }, object: THREE.Object3D, location: GeoCoordinatesLike | Vector3Like): {
        azimuth: number;
        tilt: number;
    };

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Description
mapView	{ projection: Projection; }	The MapView instance to consider.
object	THREE.Object3D	The object to get the coordinates from.
location	GeoCoordinatesLike | Vector3Like	The reference point.

Returns:

{ azimuth: number; tilt: number; }
