NAME

6       Net::DNS::RR::LOC - DNS LOC resource record
7

SYNOPSIS

9           use Net::DNS;
10           $rr = new Net::DNS::RR('name LOC latitude longitude altitude size hp vp');

DESCRIPTION

13       DNS geographical location (LOC) resource records.
14

METHODS

16       The available methods are those inherited from the base class augmented
17       by the type-specific methods defined in this package.
18
19       Use of undocumented package features or direct access to internal data
20       structures is discouraged and could result in program termination or
21       other unpredictable behaviour.
22
23   latitude
24           $latitude = $rr->latitude;
25           ($deg, $min, $sec, $ns ) = $rr->latitude;
26
27           $rr->latitude( 42.357990 );
28           $rr->latitude( 42, 21, 28.764, 'N' );
29           $rr->latitude( '42 21 28.764 N' );
30
31       When invoked in scalar context, latitude is returned in degrees, a
32       negative ordinate being south of the equator.
33
34       When invoked in list context, latitude is returned as a list of
35       separate degree, minute, and second values followed by N or S as
36       appropriate.
37
38       Optional replacement values may be represented as single value, list or
39       formatted string. Trailing zero values are optional.
40
41   longitude
42           $longitude = $rr->longitude;
43           ($deg, $min, $sec, $ew ) = $rr->longitude;
44
45           $rr->latitude( 71.014338 );
46           $rr->latitude( 71, 0, 51.617, 'W' );
47           $rr->latitude( '71 0 51.617 W' );
48
49       When invoked in scalar context, longitude is returned in degrees, a
50       negative ordinate being west of the prime meridian.
51
52       When invoked in list context, longitude is returned as a list of
53       separate degree, minute, and second values followed by E or W as
54       appropriate.
55
56   altitude
57           $altitude = $rr->altitude;
58
59       Represents altitude, in metres, relative to the WGS 84 reference
60       spheroid used by GPS.
61
62   size
63           $size = $rr->size;
64
65       Represents the diameter, in metres, of a sphere enclosing the described
66       entity.
67
68   hp
69           $hp = $rr->hp;
70
71       Represents the horizontal precision of the data expressed as the
72       diameter, in metres, of the circle of error.
73
74   vp
75           $vp = $rr->vp;
76
77       Represents the vertical precision of the data expressed as the total
78       spread, in metres, of the distribution of possible values.
79
80   latlon
81           ($lat, $lon) = $rr->latlon;
82
83       Returns the latitude and longitude coordinate pair as signed floating-
84       point degrees.
85
86   version
87           $version = $rr->version;
88
89       Version of LOC protocol.
