7

SYNOPSIS

9       "use Net::DNS::RR";
10

DESCRIPTION

12       Class for DNS Location (LOC) resource records.  See RFC 1876 for
13       details.
14

METHODS

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