GetAltitudeError method

Retrieves the altitude error, in meters.

Syntax

HRESULT GetAltitudeError(
  [out]  DOUBLE *pAltitudeError
);

Parameters

pAltitudeError [out]

Address of a DOUBLE that receives the altitude error, in meters. May be NULL.

Return value

Possible values include, but are not limited to, those in the following table.

Examples

The following example demonstrates how to call GetAltitudeError. Altitude is an optional field in latitude/longitude reports, so GetAltitudeError may not always return data.

DOUBLE altitudeError = 0;
// Print the Altitude Error
if (SUCCEEDED(spLatLongReport->GetAltitudeError(&altitudeError)))
{
    wprintf(L"Altitude Error: %f\n", altitudeError);
}
else
{
    // Altitude Error is optional and may not be available
    wprintf(L"Altitude Error: Not available.\n");
}
