@UML(identifier="SC_GeneralDerivedCRS", specification=ISO_19111) public interface GeneralDerivedCRS extends SingleCRS
A coordinate reference system that is defined by its coordinate conversion from another coordinate reference system (not by a datum).
Since:
1.0
  • Method Details

    • getBaseCRS

      Returns the base coordinate reference system.
      Returns:
      The base coordinate reference system.
    • getConversionFromBase

      @UML(identifier="conversion", obligation=MANDATORY, specification=ISO_19111) Conversion getConversionFromBase()
      Returns the conversion from the base CRS to this CRS.
      Returns:
      The conversion from the base CRS.
      Departure from OGC/ISO abstract specification:
      Change of name without change in functionality "conversion" may be confusing as a method name since it does not indicate which CRS is the source or which is the target. OGC document 01-009 used the toBase() method name. By analogy with 01-009, GeoAPI defines a method name which contains the "FromBase" expression.
