## Detailed Description

The QGeoSatelliteInfo class contains basic information about a satellite.

See also QGeoSatelliteInfoSource.

## Member Type Documentation

### enum QGeoSatelliteInfo::Attribute

Defines the attributes for the satellite information.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QGeoSatelliteInfo::Elevation` | `0` | The elevation of the satellite, in degrees.
`QGeoSatelliteInfo::Azimuth` | `1` | The azimuth to true north, in degrees.

### enum QGeoSatelliteInfo::SatelliteSystem

Defines the GNSS system of the satellite.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QGeoSatelliteInfo::Undefined` | `0x00` | Not defined.
`QGeoSatelliteInfo::GPS` | `0x01` | Global Positioning System (USA).
`QGeoSatelliteInfo::GLONASS` | `0x02` | Global Positioning System (Russia).

## Member Function Documentation

### QGeoSatelliteInfo::QGeoSatelliteInfo()

Creates a satellite information object.

### QGeoSatelliteInfo::QGeoSatelliteInfo(const QGeoSatelliteInfo & other)

Creates a satellite information object with the values of other.

### QGeoSatelliteInfo::~QGeoSatelliteInfo()

Destroys a satellite information object.

### qreal QGeoSatelliteInfo::attribute(Attribute attribute) const

Returns the value of the specified attribute as a qreal value.

Returns -1 if the value has not been set.

See also hasAttribute() and setAttribute().

### bool QGeoSatelliteInfo::hasAttribute(Attribute attribute) const

Returns true if the specified attribute is present in this update.

### void QGeoSatelliteInfo::removeAttribute(Attribute attribute)

Removes the specified attribute and its value.

### int QGeoSatelliteInfo::satelliteIdentifier() const

Returns the satellite identifier number.

The satellite identifier number can be used to identify a satellite inside the satellite system. For satellite system GPS the satellite identifier number represents the PRN (Pseudo-random noise) number. For satellite system GLONASS the satellite identifier number represents the slot number.

See also setSatelliteIdentifier().

### SatelliteSystem QGeoSatelliteInfo::satelliteSystem() const

Returns the Satellite System (GPS, GLONASS, ...)

See also setSatelliteSystem().

### void QGeoSatelliteInfo::setAttribute(Attribute attribute, qreal value)

Sets the value for attribute to value.

See also attribute().

### void QGeoSatelliteInfo::setSatelliteIdentifier(int satId)

Sets the satellite identifier number to satId.

The satellite identifier number can be used to identify a satellite inside the satellite system. For satellite system GPS the satellite identifier number represents the PRN (Pseudo-random noise) number. For satellite system GLONASS the satellite identifier number represents the slot number.

See also satelliteIdentifier().

### void QGeoSatelliteInfo::setSatelliteSystem(SatelliteSystem system)

Sets the Satellite System (GPS, GLONASS, ...) to system.

See also satelliteSystem().

### void QGeoSatelliteInfo::setSignalStrength(int signalStrength)

Sets the signal strength to signalStrength, in decibels.

See also signalStrength().

### int QGeoSatelliteInfo::signalStrength() const

Returns the signal strength, or -1 if the value has not been set.

See also setSignalStrength().

### bool QGeoSatelliteInfo::operator!=(const QGeoSatelliteInfo & other) const

Returns true if any of the information for this satellite are not the same as those of other.

### QGeoSatelliteInfo & QGeoSatelliteInfo::operator=(const QGeoSatelliteInfo & other)

Assigns the values from other to this object.

### bool QGeoSatelliteInfo::operator==(const QGeoSatelliteInfo & other) const

Returns true if all the information for this satellite are the same as those of other.

Writes the given info to the specified stream.

See also Format of the QDataStream operators.

### QDataStream & operator>>(QDataStream & stream, QGeoSatelliteInfo & info)

Reads satellite information from the specified stream into the given info.
