040     * A two- or three-dimensional coordinate system that consists of any combination of coordinate
041     * axes not covered by any other Coordinate System type. An example is a multilinear coordinate
042     * system which contains one coordinate axis that may have any 1-D shape which has no intersections
043     * with itself. This non-straight axis is supplemented by one or two straight axes to complete a 2
044     * or 3 dimensional coordinate system. The non-straight axis is typically incrementally straight or
045     * curved. A {@code UserDefinedCS} shall have two or three
046     * {@linkplain #getAxis axis associations}.
