Class CompactElevationProfile

java.lang.Object

org.opentripplanner.common.geometry.CompactElevationProfile

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public final class CompactElevationProfile
extends Object
implements Serializable

Compact elevation profile. To optimize storage, we use the following tricks:

• Store intermediate point in fixed floating points with fixed precision, using delta coding from the previous point, and variable length coding (most of the delta coordinates will thus fits in 1 or 2 bytes).

Performance hit should be low as we do not need the elevation profile itself during a path search.
