Beispiel
Der folgende Beispielcode zeigt, wie die Entfernung zwischen zwei Locator-Angaben berechnet werden kann:
string homeLoc = "JN59MN"
string destLoc = "JO63DH"
// Compute distance [km] and direction [°]
double distance = MaidenheadLocator.Distance(homeLoc, destLoc);
double azimuth = MaidenheadLocator.Azimuth(homeLoc, destLoc);
// Convert locator to latitude/longitude
LatLong homeLL = MaidenheadLocator.LocatorToLatLong(homeLoc);
// Convert latitude/longitude to locator
string myLoc = MaidenheadLocator.LatLongToLocator(49.57, 11.08);
