Class DefaultTransformation

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, Formattable, Parameterized, Deprecable, LenientComparable, org.opengis.referencing.IdentifiedObject, org.opengis.referencing.operation.CoordinateOperation, org.opengis.referencing.operation.SingleOperation, org.opengis.referencing.operation.Transformation

public class DefaultTransformation extends AbstractSingleOperation implements org.opengis.referencing.operation.Transformation
A parameterized mathematical operation that transforms coordinates to another CRS with a change of datum. The parameters of a coordinate transformation are empirically derived from data containing the coordinates of a series of points in both coordinate reference systems. This computational process is usually "over-determined", allowing derivation of error (or accuracy) estimates for the transformation. Also, the stochastic nature of the parameters may result in multiple (different) versions of the same coordinate transformation.

This coordinate operation contains an operation method, usually with associated parameter values. In the SIS default implementation, the parameter values are inferred from the math transform. Subclasses may have to override the AbstractSingleOperation.getParameterValues() method if they need to provide a different set of parameters.

Immutability and thread safety

This class is immutable and thus thread-safe if the property values (not necessarily the map itself) given to the constructor are also immutable. This means that unless otherwise noted in the javadoc, Transformation instances created using only SIS factories and static constants can be shared by many objects and passed between threads without synchronization.

    • DefaultTransformation

      public DefaultTransformation(Map<String,?> properties, org.opengis.referencing.crs.CoordinateReferenceSystem sourceCRS, org.opengis.referencing.crs.CoordinateReferenceSystem targetCRS, org.opengis.referencing.crs.CoordinateReferenceSystem interpolationCRS, org.opengis.referencing.operation.OperationMethod method, org.opengis.referencing.operation.MathTransform transform)
      Creates a coordinate transformation from the given properties. The properties given in argument follow the same rules than for the super-class constructor. The following table is a reminder of main (not all) properties:
      Recognized properties (non exhaustive list)
      Property name Value type Returned by
      "name" Identifier or String AbstractIdentifiedObject.getName()
      "identifiers" Identifier (optionally as array) AbstractIdentifiedObject.getIdentifiers()
      "coordinateOperationAccuracy" PositionalAccuracy (optionally as array) AbstractCoordinateOperation.getCoordinateOperationAccuracy()
      "domainOfValidity" Extent AbstractCoordinateOperation.getDomainOfValidity()
      Parameters:
      properties - the properties to be given to the identified object.
      sourceCRS - the source CRS.
      targetCRS - the target CRS.
      interpolationCRS - the CRS of additional coordinates needed for the operation, or null if none.
      method - the coordinate operation method (mandatory in all cases).
      transform - transform from positions in the source CRS to positions in the target CRS.
    • DefaultTransformation

      protected DefaultTransformation(org.opengis.referencing.operation.Transformation operation)
      Creates a new coordinate operation with the same values than the specified one. This copy constructor provides a way to convert an arbitrary implementation into a SIS one or a user-defined one (as a subclass), usually in order to leverage some implementation-specific API.

      This constructor performs a shallow copy, i.e. the properties are not cloned.

      Parameters:
      operation - the coordinate operation to copy.
      See Also:
    • DefaultTransformation

      private DefaultTransformation()
      Constructs a new object in which every attributes are set to a null value. This is not a valid object. This constructor is strictly reserved to JAXB, which will assign values to the fields using reflection.

    • castOrCopy

      public static DefaultTransformation castOrCopy(org.opengis.referencing.operation.Transformation object)
      Returns a SIS coordinate operation implementation with the values of the given arbitrary implementation. If the given object is already an instance of DefaultTransformation, then it is returned unchanged. Otherwise a new DefaultTransformation instance is created using the copy constructor and returned. Note that this is a shallow copy operation, because the other properties contained in the given object are not recursively copied.
      Parameters:
      object - the object to get as a SIS implementation, or null if none.
      Returns:
      a SIS implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or null if the argument was null.
    • getInterface

      public Class<? extends org.opengis.referencing.operation.Transformation> getInterface()
      Returns the GeoAPI interface implemented by this class. The SIS implementation returns Transformation.class.
      Note for implementers: Subclasses usually do not need to override this method since GeoAPI does not define Transformation sub-interface. Overriding possibility is left mostly for implementers who wish to extend GeoAPI with their own set of interfaces.
      Overrides:
      getInterface in class AbstractCoordinateOperation
      Returns:
      Transformation.class or a user-defined sub-interface.
