BursaWolfParameters

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Cloneable

public class BursaWolfParameters
extends Formattable
implements Cloneable, Serializable

Parameters for a geographic transformation between two datum. The Bursa Wolf parameters should be applied to geocentric coordinates, where the X axis points towards the Greenwich Prime Meridian, the Y axis points East, and the Z axis points North. The "Bursa-Wolf" formula is expressed in matrix form with 7 parameters:

Constructor Detail

BursaWolfParameters

public BursaWolfParameters(GeodeticDatum target)

Constructs a transformation info with all parameters set to 0.

Parameters:

target - The target datum for this parameters.

Method Detail

isIdentity

public boolean isIdentity()

Returns true if this Bursa Wolf parameters performs no operation. This is true when all parameters are set to zero.

Returns:

true if the parameters describe no operation.

isTranslation

public boolean isTranslation()

Returns true if this Bursa Wolf parameters contains only translation terms.

Returns:

true if the parameters describe to a translation only.

getAffineTransform

public XMatrix getAffineTransform()

Returns an affine transform that can be used to define this Bursa Wolf transformation. The formula is as follows:

 S = 1 + ppm/1000000

 [ X’ ]    [     S   -ez*S   +ey*S   dx ]  [ X ]
 [ Y’ ]  = [ +ez*S       S   -ex*S   dy ]  [ Y }
 [ Z’ ]    [ -ey*S   +ex*S       S   dz ]  [ Z ]
 [ 1  ]    [     0       0       0    1 ]  [ 1 ]
 

This affine transform can be applied on geocentric coordinates.

Returns:

An affine transform created from the parameters.

setAffineTransform

public void setAffineTransform(Matrix matrix,
                               double eps)
                        throws IllegalArgumentException

Sets transformation info from the specified matrix, which must be affine. In addition, the matrix minus the last row and last column must be antisymmetric.

Parameters:

matrix - The matrix to fit as a Bursa-Wolf construct.

eps - The tolerance error for the antisymmetric matrix test. Should be a small number like 1E-4.

Throws:

IllegalArgumentException - if the specified matrix doesn't meet the conditions.

Since:

2.2

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash value for this object.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

Returns:

The hash code value. This value doesn't need to be the same in past or future versions of this class.

clone

public BursaWolfParameters clone()

Returns a copy of this object.

Overrides:

clone in class Object

Returns:

A clone of the parameters.

Object.clone()

equals

public boolean equals(Object object)

Compares the specified object with this object for equality.

Overrides:

equals in class Object

Parameters:

object - The object to compare with the parameters.

Returns:

true if the given object is equals to the parameters.

formatWKT

protected String formatWKT(Formatter formatter)

Format the inner part of a Well Known Text (WKT) element. The WKT contains the parameters in translation, rotation, scale order, as in TOWGS84[dx, dy, dz, ex, ey, ez, ppm].

Overrides:

formatWKT in class Formattable

Parameters:

formatter - The formatter to use.

Returns:

The WKT element name.
