Package org.opengis.referencing.operation

package org.opengis.referencing.operation

Coordinate operations (relationship between any two CRS). If the relationship between any two coordinate reference systems (CRS) is known, coordinates in one CRS can be transformed or converted to another CRS. If the CRS is dynamic, coordinates also may be referenced to a different coordinate epoch, or to both a different CRS and different coordinate epoch.

The algorithm used to execute a single coordinate operation is defined in the operation method. Each operation method can use a number of parameters, and each single coordinate operation assigns value to these parameters.

A coordinate operation (transformation or conversion) can be time-varying, and must be time-varying if either the source or target CRS is time varying. When the coordinate operation is time-varying, the operation method used will also be time-varying, and some of the parameters used by that operation method will involve time. For example, some of the parameters may have time, velocity, and/or acceleration values and units.
