C# Class LibNoise.Model.Sphere

Model that defines the surface of a sphere. This model returns an output value from a noise module given the coordinates of an input value located on the surface of a sphere. To generate an output value, pass the (latitude, longitude) coordinates of an input value to the GetValue() method. This model is useful for creating: - seamless textures that can be mapped onto a sphere - terrain height maps for entire planets This sphere has a radius of 1.0 unit and its center is located at the origin.

Method Description
GetValue ( float lat, float lon ) : float

Returns the output value from the noise module given the (latitude, longitude) coordinates of the specified input value located on the surface of the sphere. Use a negative latitude if the input value is located on the southern hemisphere. Use a negative longitude if the input value is located on the western hemisphere.
