DbSpatialServices.Distance Method

Definition

Overloads

Distance(DbGeography, DbGeography)

Computes the distance between the closest points in two DbGeography values.

Distance(DbGeometry, DbGeometry)

Computes the distance between the closest points in two DbGeometry values.

Distance(DbGeography, DbGeography)

Computes the distance between the closest points in two DbGeography values.

public abstract double Distance (System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography geographyValue, System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography otherGeography);
abstract member Distance : System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography * System.Data.Entity.Spatial.DbGeography -> double
Public MustOverride Function Distance (geographyValue As DbGeography, otherGeography As DbGeography) As Double

Parameters

geographyValue
DbGeography

The first geography value.

otherGeography
DbGeography

The second geography value.

Returns

A double value that specifies the distance between the two closest points in geographyValue and otherGeography.

Exceptions

geographyValue or otherGeography is null.

geographyValue or otherGeography is not compatible with this spatial services implementation.
