This Javadoc page may be more to the point:

https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-math/javadocs/api-3.6.1/org/apache/commons/math3/geometry/euclidean/threed/Vector3D.html

Indeed.  The new class, equivalent to the above is:

https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=commons-geometry.git;a=blob;f=commons-geometry-euclidean/src/main/java/org/apache/commons/geometry/euclidean/threed/Vector3D.java

True but the refactoring work is ongoing (see posts on the "dev" ML),
and reviewers are most welcome.

ASAP. ;-)
[The more people express an interest, the greater the motivation...]

And we are looking for actual use-cases (for integration testing and
in order to populate a "Get Started" userguide).

Also, the new "Commons Geometry" component will depend on the
new "Commons Numbers" component (that is as yet unreleased too).
Reviewers/contributors for this "core" dependency are also most
wanted in order to iron out the pending issues:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/NUMBERS/issues/NUMBERS-74?filter=allopenissues

Please chime in on the "dev" ML if you'd like to help.

Thanks,
Gilles

Please start a new thread for a new question.

Hello,

Yes, Apache Commons Maths has what you need. Start by having a look at the 
org.apache.commons.math3.geometry.euclidean.threed package and the Vector3D 
class
https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-math/userguide/geometry.html 

By the way, I have understand that this geometry package will be supplanted by 
the apache commons geometry 
(https://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-geometry/)  but there is no release 
yet.
Does anybody knows what is the associated schedule?

Best regards,
Romain

Hello,

I have some calculations that specifically involve:

1) calculating vectors from 3-dimensional x, y, z points in Euclidean space

2) performing dot products with the aforementioned vectors

3) finding vector length

Would someone please tell me if Apache Commons Math has tools to calculate 
these quantities, and if so, what is the complete import statements to summon 
these classes and their methods?  Thanks.
