AuthorityFactory, Factory

@UML(identifier="CT_CoordinateTransformationAuthorityFactory",
     specification=OGC_01009)
public interface CoordinateOperationAuthorityFactory
extends AuthorityFactory

Creates coordinate transformation objects from codes. The codes are maintained by an external authority. A commonly used authority is EPSG, which is also used in the GeoTIFF standard.

Since:

GeoAPI 1.0

Version:

Implementation specification 1.0

Method Summary

Method Detail

createCoordinateOperation

@UML(identifier="createFromTransformationCode",
     specification=OGC_01009)
CoordinateOperation createCoordinateOperation(String code)
                                              throws FactoryException

Creates an operation from a single operation code. The "Authority" and "Code" values of the created object will be set to the authority of this object, and the code specified by the client, respectively. The other metadata values may or may not be set.

Parameters:

code - Coded value for transformation.

Throws:

NoSuchAuthorityCodeException - if the specified code was not found.

FactoryException - if the object creation failed for some other reason.

createFromCoordinateReferenceSystemCodes

@UML(identifier="createFromCoordinateSystemCodes",
     specification=OGC_01009)
Set<CoordinateOperation> createFromCoordinateReferenceSystemCodes(String sourceCode,
                                                                                                      String targetCode)
                                                                  throws FactoryException

Creates an operation from coordinate reference system codes.

Parameters:

sourceCode - Coded value of source coordinate reference system.

targetCode - Coded value of target coordinate reference system.

Throws:

NoSuchAuthorityCodeException - if a specified code was not found.

FactoryException - if the object creation failed for some other reason.
