public interface EngineeringCRS
extends SingleCRS

A contextually local coordinate reference system. It can be divided into two broad categories:

• earth-fixed systems applied to engineering activities on or near the surface of the earth;
• CRSs on moving platforms such as road vehicles, vessels, aircraft, or spacecraft.

Used with CS type(s)

Affine, Cartesian, Ellipsoidal, Spherical, Cylindrical, Polar, Vertical, Linear
