Class Summary
Class	Description
Bounds	A rectangular (in Mercator projection) bounding box specified by a lower-left coordinate (`Bounds.min()`) and an upper-right coordinate (`Bounds.max()`).
Coordinates	Constants and utility methods pertaining to geographic coordinates.
GriddedRegion	A `GriddedRegion` is a `Region` that has been discretized in latitude and longitude.
Location	A `Location` represents a point with reference to the earth's ellipsoid.
LocationGrid	An immutable, tabular grid of locations that supplies row and column data as `LocationList`s.
LocationGrid.Builder	A single-use builder of `LocationGrid`s.
LocationList	An immutable, ordered collection of `Location`s.
LocationList.Builder	A reusable builder of `LocationList`s.
Locations	Static utility methods to operate on geographic `Location` data.
LocationVector	This class encapsulates information describing a vector between two `Location`s.
Region	A `Region` is a polygonal area on the surface of the earth.
Regions	Utility methods pertaining to geographic regions.
RegionUtils	Region export utilities.

Package gov.usgs.earthquake.nshmp.geo Description

Geographic data classes and utilities.

All objects and methods in this package assume that depths are positive-down, consistent with seismological convention.

Note that while the objects and methods of this package produce reliable results for most regions of the globe, situations may arise in which users encounter unexpected behaviour and results. For instance, the 'fast' algorithms in Locations (e.g. Locations.horzDistanceFast(Location, Location) ) will not produce accurate results when used in close proximity to the poles or when locations span the antimeridian (the -180° +180° transition). In such cases, users should consider substituting slower, but more accurate algorithms. In the latter case, one could alternatively opt to use locations referenced to 0° to 360° instead. Exceptional behavior is well documented in the Locations class.
