use Net::DNS::RR
;
print "version = ", $rr->version, "\n";
Returns the version number of the representation; programs should always
check this. Net::DNS
currently supports only version 0.
print "size = ", $rr->size, "\n";
Returns the diameter of a sphere enclosing the described entity, in centimeters.
print "horiz_pre = ", $rr->horiz_pre, "\n";
Returns the horizontal precision of the data, in centimeters.
print "vert_pre = ", $rr->vert_pre, "\n";
Returns the vertical precision of the data, in centimeters.
print "latitude = ", $rr->latitude, "\n";
Returns the latitude of the center of the sphere described by the size
method, in thousandths of a second of arc. 2**31 represents the equator;
numbers above that are north latitude.
print "longitude = ", $rr->longitude, "\n";
Returns the longitude of the center of the sphere described by the size
method, in thousandths of a second of arc. 2**31 represents the prime
meridian; numbers above that are east longitude.
($lat, $lon) = $rr->latlon; system("xearth", "-pos", "fixed $lat $lon");
Returns the latitude and longitude as floating-point degrees. Positive numbers represent north latitude or east longitude; negative numbers represent south latitude or west longitude.
print "altitude = ", $rr->altitude, "\n";
Returns the altitude of the center of the sphere described by the size
method, in centimeters, from a base of 100,000m below the WGS 84 reference
spheroid used by GPS.
Some of the code and documentation is based on RFC 1876 and on code contributed by Christopher Davis.
