ProjectionConverter

Namespace: ThinkGeo.Core

This class represents a projection that you wish to apply to a FeatureSource.

public class ProjectionConverter

Inheritance ObjectProjectionConverter

Remarks:

This class is abstract and designed to be inherited to create your own projection. The derived projection classes are typically used on a FeatureSource or Layer. It is used to project coordinates from one projection to another and back again. It is important to note that you need to implement the projection both ways.

Properties

DecimalDegreeBoundary

public RectangleShape DecimalDegreeBoundary { get; set; }

Property Value

RectangleShape

InternalProjection

Gets or sets the Proj4 text parameter for the from projection. This parameter typically look like "+Proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +no_defs".

public Projection InternalProjection { get; set; }

Property Value

Projection

ExternalProjection

Gets or sets the Proj4 text parameter for the to projection. This parameter typically look like "+proj=utm +zone=33 +ellps=WGS84 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs".

public Projection ExternalProjection { get; set; }

Property Value

Projection

IsOpen

This property gets the state of the projection (whether it is opened or closed).

public bool IsOpen { get; protected set; }

Property Value

Boolean

Remarks:

This method will reflect whether the projection is opened or closed. It is set in the concrete methods Open and Close, so if you inherit from this class and override OpenCore or CloseCore, you will not need to be concerned with setting this property.

CanConvertRasterToExternalProjection

public bool CanConvertRasterToExternalProjection { get; protected set; }

Property Value

Boolean

InternalProjectionUnit

public GeographyUnit InternalProjectionUnit { get; }

Property Value

GeographyUnit

Constructors

ProjectionConverter()

This is the default constructor for this class.

public ProjectionConverter()

Remarks:

This conctructor pass nothing. After this cconstructor , you should set the InternalProjectionParametersString property and ExternalProjectionParametersString property before open to use.

ProjectionConverter(String, String)

public ProjectionConverter(string internalProjString, string externalProjString)

Parameters

internalProjString String

externalProjString String

ProjectionConverter(Int32, Int32)

public ProjectionConverter(int internalSrid, int externalSrid)

Parameters

internalSrid Int32

externalSrid Int32

ProjectionConverter(String, Int32)

public ProjectionConverter(string internalProjString, int externalSrid)

Parameters

internalProjString String

externalSrid Int32

ProjectionConverter(Int32, String)

public ProjectionConverter(int internalSridString, string externalProjString)

Parameters

internalSridString Int32

externalProjString String

ProjectionConverter(Projection, Projection)

This is a constructor for the class.

public ProjectionConverter(Projection internalProjection, Projection externalProjection)

Parameters

internalProjection Projection
This parameter is the projection parameters describing the data.

externalProjection Projection

        This parameter is the projection parameters describing the projection you want to
        go to.

Remarks:

This constructor allows you to pass in Proj4 text parameters for the to and from projection. The parameters typically look like "+proj=longlat +ellps=WGS84 +datum=WGS84 +no_defs" You should use this constructor when you know the parameters. If you know the SRID directly you can use the other constructor that takes the SRID.

Methods

Open()

This method opens the projection and gets it ready to use.

public void Open()

Remarks:

This method opens the projection and gets it ready to use.

As this is a concrete public method that wraps a Core method, we reserve the right to add events and other logic to pre- or post-process data returned by the Core version of the method. In this way, we leave our framework open on our end, but also allow you the developer to extend our logic to suit your needs. If you have questions about this, please contact our support team as we would be happy to work with you on extending our framework.

OpenCore()

This method opens the projection and gets it ready to use.

protected void OpenCore()

Remarks:

As this is the core version of the Open method, it is intended to be overridden in an inherited version of the class. When overriding, you will be responsible for getting the projection classes' state ready for doing projections.

Close()

This method closes the projection and gets it ready for serialization if necessary.

public void Close()

Remarks:

This method closes the projection and gets it ready for serialization if necessary.

As this is a concrete public method that wraps a Core method, we reserve the right to add events and other logic to pre- or post-process data returned by the Core version of the method. In this way, we leave our framework open on our end, but also allow you the developer to extend our logic to suit your needs. If you have questions about this, please contact our support team as we would be happy to work with you on extending our framework.

CloseCore()

This method closes the projection and gets it ready for serialization if necessary.

protected void CloseCore()

Remarks:

As this is the core version of the Close method, it is intended to be overridden in an inherited version of the class. When overriding, you will be responsible freeing any state you have maintained and getting the class ready for serialization if necessary. Note that the object may be opened again, so you want to make sure you can open and close the object multiple times without any ill effects.
