| long | GetLocalMeanTimeOffset (DateTime date) |
| A method that will return the location's local mean time offset in milliseconds from local standard time. The globe is split into 360°, with 15° per hour of the day. For a local that is at a longitude that is evenly divisible by 15 (longitude % 15 == 0), at solar noon (with adjustment for the equation of time) the sun should be directly overhead, so a user who is 1° west of this will have noon at 4 minutes after standard time noon, and conversely, a user who is 1° east of the 15° longitude will have noon at 11:56 AM. | |

For a local that is at a longitude that is evenly divisible by 15 (longitude % 15 == 0), at solar noon (with adjustment for the equation of time) the sun should be directly overhead, so a user who is 1° west of this will have noon at 4 minutes after standard time noon, and conversely, a user who is 1° east of the 15° longitude will have noon at 11:56 AM.
- Parameters:
-
date The date used to get the UtcOffset.
- Returns:
- the offset in milliseconds not accounting for Daylight saving time. A positive value will be returned East of the timezone line, and a negative value West of it.

Property Documentation
double Zmanim.Utilities.IGeoLocation.Elevation [get, set] |
Method to get the elevation in Meters. /summary> value> Returns the elevation in Meters.
summary> Method to set the latitude. /summary> value> The degrees of latitude to set. The values should be between -90° and 90°. An IllegalArgumentException will be thrown if the value exceeds the limit. For example 40.095965 would be used for Lakewood, NJ. <b>Note: </b> For latitudes south of the equator, a negative value should be used.
Implemented in Zmanim.Utilities.GeoLocation.
double Zmanim.Utilities.IGeoLocation.Latitude [get, set] |
summary> Method to set the longitude in a double format. /summary> value> The degrees of longitude to set in a double format between -180° and 180°. An IllegalArgumentException will be thrown if the value exceeds the limit. For example -74.2094 would be used for Lakewood, NJ. Note: for longitudes east of the <a href = "http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_Meridian">Prime Meridian</a> (Greenwich) a negative value should be used.
