@UML(identifier="CC_OperationMethod",

public interface OperationMethod
extends IdentifiedObject

Definition of an algorithm used to perform a coordinate operation. Most operation methods use a number of operation parameters, although some coordinate conversions use none. Each coordinate operation using the method assigns values to these parameters.

Since:

GeoAPI 1.0

FORMULA_KEY

static final String FORMULA_KEY

Key for the "formula" property. This is used for setting the value to be returned by getFormula().

getFormula(), Constant Field Values

Method Detail

getFormula

@UML(identifier="formula",
     obligation=MANDATORY,
     specification=ISO_19111)
InternationalString getFormula()

Formula(s) or procedure used by this operation method. This may be a reference to a publication. Note that the operation method may not be analytic, in which case this attribute references or contains the procedure, not an analytic formula.

Returns:

The formula used by this method.

getSourceDimensions

@UML(identifier="sourceDimensions",
     obligation=MANDATORY,
     specification=ISO_19111)
int getSourceDimensions()

Number of dimensions in the source CRS of this operation method.

Returns:

The dimension of source CRS.

getTargetDimensions

@UML(identifier="targetDimensions",
     obligation=MANDATORY,
     specification=ISO_19111)
int getTargetDimensions()

Number of dimensions in the target CRS of this operation method.

Returns:

The dimension of target CRS.

getParameters

@UML(identifier="usesParameter",
     obligation=MANDATORY,
     specification=ISO_19111)
ParameterDescriptorGroup getParameters()

The set of parameters.

Returns:

The parameters, or an empty group if none.
