Detailed Description

Location elements represent a geographic "location", in a human sense. This consists of a specific Coordinate, as well as an Address and a BoundingBox. The BoundingBox delineates the limits of what geographic area is considered "part of" the location. For example, a Location representing a house would have the Coordinate set to the center of the house's block of land, the Address to its street address, and the BoundingBox would show roughly the limits of the block itself.

The Location element is most commonly seen as the contents of a search model such as the GeocodeModel. When a GeocodeModel returns the list of locations found for a given query, it represents these as Location elements.

Example Usage

The following example shows a simple Location element being declared with a set coordinate and address.

 Address {
     id: houseAddress
     ...
 }

 Coordinate {
     id: coord
     latitude: -27.3; longitude: 153.1
 }

 Location {
     coordinate: coord
     address: houseAddress
 }
