The interface for all
Property objects that define a world
location as a Cartesian3 with an associated ReferenceFrame.
This type defines an interface and cannot be instantiated directly.
Members
readonly definitionChanged : Event
Gets the event that is raised whenever the definition of this property changes.
The definition is considered to have changed if a call to getValue would return
a different result for the same time.
