APPENDIX C - Types
SE_RS_Elevation_Select
|
/*
* ENUM: SE_RS_Elevation_Select
*
* This data type is used by a <Reference Surface> instance to
* specify exactly one element from a ray / surface intersection
* set, as follows.
*
* The elevation resolution process for a <Location 2D> works
* like this. A given <Location 2D> corresponds to the (unique)
* ray which is:
* 1. Normal to the surface of the SRF ellipsoid.
* 2. Intersects the ellipsoid at the same horizontal
* coordinates as the <Location 2D>
* 3. Extends below the surface of the ellipsoid to a depth
* equal the minor radius of the ellipsoid.
*
* The intersection of this ray with the resolution surface
* defines the corresponding <Location 3D>.
*
* The above assumes, however, that the ray/surface intersection
* set contains exactly one element. SE_RS_Elevation_Select
* is used, in the case when the intersection set contains more
* than one intersection element, to choose exactly one element
* from that set.

} SE_RS_Elevation_Select;
Enumerant Notes
Use the point with the lowest elevation.
Use the point with smallest absolute z value.
$$$ identifier - see SCR-sri-6
Use the point with largest z value.
