DESCRIPTION

12       Class for DNS Location (LOC) resource records.  See RFC 1876 for
13       details.

METHODS

16       version
17
18           print "version = ", $rr->version, "\n";
19
20       Returns the version number of the representation; programs should
21       always check this.  "Net::DNS" currently supports only version 0.
22
23       size
24
25           print "size = ", $rr->size, "\n";
26
27       Returns the diameter of a sphere enclosing the described entity, in
28       centimeters.
29
30       horiz_pre
31
32           print "horiz_pre = ", $rr->horiz_pre, "\n";
33
34       Returns the horizontal precision of the data, in centimeters.
35
36       vert_pre
37
38           print "vert_pre = ", $rr->vert_pre, "\n";
39
40       Returns the vertical precision of the data, in centimeters.
41
42       latitude
43
44           print "latitude = ", $rr->latitude, "\n";
45
46       Returns the latitude of the center of the sphere described by the
47       "size" method, in thousandths of a second of arc.  2**31 represents the
48       equator; numbers above that are north latitude.
49
50       longitude
51
52           print "longitude = ", $rr->longitude, "\n";
53
54       Returns the longitude of the center of the sphere described by the
55       "size" method, in thousandths of a second of arc.  2**31 represents the
56       prime meridian; numbers above that are east longitude.
57
58       latlon
59
60           ($lat, $lon) = $rr->latlon;
61           system("xearth", "-pos", "fixed $lat $lon");
62
63       Returns the latitude and longitude as floating-point degrees.  Positive
64       numbers represent north latitude or east longitude; negative numbers
65       represent south latitude or west longitude.
66
67       altitude
68
69           print "altitude = ", $rr->altitude, "\n";
70
71       Returns the altitude of the center of the sphere described by the
72       "size" method, in centimeters, from a base of 100,000m below the WGS 84
73       reference spheroid used by GPS.
