Method Detail

getIdentifier

Text getIdentifier()

Return a unique identifier. This might be a Text object representing the name of the station (e.g.: "Denver"), the ICAO 4 letter id (e.g., "KDEN"), a WMO block and station number as a string (e.g., "72565"), or some other identifying string (i.e., "intersection of Mitchell and 47th" or "Point A", or "A")

Returns:

Text whose getValue() method returns the identifier

getEarthLocation

EarthLocation getEarthLocation()

Get the lat/lon/altitude as an EarthLocation.

Returns:

EarthLocation for this object
