Checks if the provided precision is valid, i.e. if it can be used in GIS calculations in the Geodetic coordinate system.

Parameters

precision

a precison to validate

errorMessage

an error message, passed by reference (out), that contains detailed information in case of the invalid precision

Return Value

true - if the precision is valid, false - if the precision is invalid

Remarks

The valid precision is an integer number in the range from 0 (inclusive) to 15 (inclusive).

Example

This sample shows how to call the Geodetic.IsValidPrecision method from C# code:

string errorMessage = String.Empty;
int precision = 77;
            
if (Geodetic.IsValidPrecision(precision, out errorMessage))
{
    Console.WriteLine("Precision is valid.");
}
else
{
    Console.WriteLine(errorMessage);
}
