Microsoft.Spatial

The Microsoft.Spatial library provides classes and methods for geographic and geometric operations. It is a core component of the OData .NET libraries, enabling you to work with geospatial data types such as points in 2D/3D space, lat/long, lines, and polygons.

Installation

You can install the Microsoft.Spatial package via NuGet:

dotnet add package Microsoft.Spatial

Or via the NuGet Package Manager Console:

Install-Package Microsoft.Spatial

Getting Started

Creating and Using Spatial Data

Here's a simple example of how to create and use spatial data types with Microsoft.Spatial:

using Microsoft.Spatial;

// Create a GeographyPoint
var point = GeographyPoint.Create(47.6097, -122.3331);

// Output the point's coordinates
Console.WriteLine($"Latitude: {point.Latitude}, Longitude: {point.Longitude}");

// Create a GeographyLineString
var lineString = GeographyFactory.LineString()
    .LineTo(47.6097, -122.3331)
    .LineTo(47.6205, -122.3493)
    .Build();

// Output the line string's points
foreach (var position in lineString.Points)
{
    Console.WriteLine($"Point: Latitude {position.Latitude}, Longitude {position.Longitude}");
}
