      • getReferencePosition

        Position getReferencePosition()
        A position associated with the object that indicates its aggregate geographic position. The chosen position varies among implementers of this interface. For objects defined by a list of positions, the reference position is typically the first position in the list. For symmetric objects the reference position is often the center of the object. In many cases the object's reference position may be explicitly specified by the application.
        Returns:
        the object's reference position, or null if no reference position is available.
      • move

        void move​(Position position)
        Shift the shape over the globe's surface while maintaining its original azimuth, its orientation relative to North.
        Parameters:
        position - the latitude and longitude to add to the shape's reference position.
      • moveTo

        void moveTo​(Position position)
        Move the shape over the globe's surface while maintaining its original azimuth, its orientation relative to North.
        Parameters:
        position - the new position of the shape's reference position.
