 Return the position of the 3 corners for the triangle at the given level and index.
 
int getPartnerTriangle (int lev, int index) const
 Return the index of the partner triangle with which to form a parallelogram.
 
const GeodesicSearchResultsearch (const QVector< SphericalCap > &convex, int maxSearchLevel) const
 Return a search result matching the given spatial region The result is cached, meaning that it is very fast to search the same region consecutively. More...

◆ getZoneNumberForPoint()

int StelGeodesicGrid::getZoneNumberForPoint ( const Vec3f v,
int  searchLevel 
) const

prerequisite: v*v==1 When the point lies on the border of two or more zones, one such zone is returned (always the same one, because the algorithm is deterministic).

◆ search()

const GeodesicSearchResult* StelGeodesicGrid::search ( const QVector< SphericalCap > &  convex,
int  maxSearchLevel 
) const
