Enum Class DistanceUnit

java.lang.Object
java.lang.Enum<DistanceUnit>
org.elasticsearch.common.unit.DistanceUnit
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Comparable<DistanceUnit>, Constable, Writeable

public enum DistanceUnit extends Enum<DistanceUnit> implements Writeable
The DistanceUnit enumerates several units for measuring distances. These units provide methods for converting strings and methods to convert units among each others. Some methods like getEarthCircumference() refer to the earth ellipsoid defined in GeoUtils. The default unit used within this project is METERS which is defined by DEFAULT

      Returns:
      the enum constant with the specified name
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if this enum class has no constant with the specified name
      NullPointerException - if the argument is null
    • getEarthCircumference

      public double getEarthCircumference()
      Measures the circumference of earth in this unit
      Returns:
