I have a coordinate point of a place, for example:
point_coord = [-7.7938593,110.3634829]
I also have a viewport
of an area contain two point of corrdinates, for example:
northeast = [5.9052479,141.0194444]
southwest = [-11.005261,95.01106190000002]
If I illustrate these point, it will be look like this:
The question is, how do I check if the point_coord
is fall or lies in somewhere in that box area using Python?
Thanks
Sorry, not too much experience with maps and viewports, but shouldn't it simply be:
def isInside(point_coord, northeast, southwest):
return southwest[0]<point_coord[0]<northeast[0] and\
southwest[1]<point_coord[1]<northeast[1]
The only possible edge cases I can think of would be north and south poles. You could probably just code special cases to handle them.
Edit: some typos and not chaining comparisons.
