Interface UserDefinedCS

@UML(identifier="CS_UserDefinedCS",
     specification=ISO_19111)
public interface UserDefinedCS
extends CoordinateSystem

A 2- or 3-dimensional coordinate system that consists of any combination of axes not covered by any other CS type.

Example: a multilinear coordinate system which contains one coordinate axis that may have any 1-D shape which has no intersections with itself. This non-straight axis is supplemented by one or two straight axes to complete a 2 or 3 dimensional coordinate system. The non-straight axis is typically incrementally straight or curved.

This type of CS can be used by coordinate reference systems of type EngineeringCRS.
