Public method	GroundAt(System.Int32 x, System.Int32 y)	Returns the coordinates of the ground position that is presented at the specified drawable position.

GroundAt(Point point)

Returns the coordinates of the ground position that is presented at the specified drawable position.

Syntax

public Point GroundAt (
    Point point
)

Parameters

point

Type: Point
The drawable coordinate.

Return Value

Type: Point

{
    // Get  the ground position that is presented at the specified mouse position.
    Point groundPoint = globeView.GroundAt(mousePixelPosition);

    // Check if the ground point is valid.
    // If no ground is found the point [-1.0e99, -1.0e99, -1.0e99] is returned.
    return groundPoint != new Point(-1.0e99, -1.0e99, -1.0e99);
