CreatePointGeometry

Creates a point.

Parameters

point

Any of the following geometries can be passed as the point parameter:

·          The Point WKB

·          ThePoint WKT
See: “Well Known Text and Well Known Binary (WKT and WKB)” in the “Overview” chapter for background information on WKT and WKB.

·          A Safe Array of Vertices– An array that contains one triplet of doubles. The triplet is composed of an x-coordinate, a y-coordinate, and a height. The height is represented in meters and the x- and y-coordinates are represented in the coordinate system’s units. You can use the ITerrain65 interface to retrieve information about the coordinate system.

Note:    As of IE11, VBScript which includes the VBArray object that returns a SafeArray, is considered deprecated. In order to continue using this TerraExplorer API using JavaScript, add the following meta tag in the head section, to enable you to choose which version of Internet Explorer the HTML page should be rendered in (in this case IE10):

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=10" />

Return Value

pVal

An IPoint representing the newly created point.

Exceptions

See:  HRESULT Return Values for a list of possible values returned by the HRESULT.
