Package org.deegree.crs.coordinatesystems

The coordinatesystems package holds the different coordinatesystems used by the org.deegree.crs packages.

Class Summary

CompoundCRS	A CompoundCRS is a GeographicCRS with a third axis (the height axis) attached.
CoordinateSystem	Three kinds of CoordinateSystems (in this class abbreviated with CRS) are supported in this lib.
GeocentricCRS	A GeocentricCRS is a coordinatesystem having three axis and a mass point defined to be equivalent to earths center.
GeographicCRS	The GeographicCoordinateSystem (in epsg aka Geodetic CRS) is a two dimensional crs with axis of lat-lon.
ProjectedCRS	A ProjectedCRS is a coordinatesystem defined with a projection and a geographic crs.
VerticalCRS	The VerticalCRS represents a crs based on one axis only, typically this crs is used as an extension on an already present crs, and adds a 'heightaxis' to the original crs.

Package org.deegree.crs.coordinatesystems Description

The coordinatesystems package holds the different coordinatesystems used by the org.deegree.crs packages.

Examples of coordinatesystems are:

• Geocentric,uses a geocentric datum)
• Geographic (coordinates are often given in degrees and use a geographic datum
• Projected, which uses a projection to map points from and to a geographic crs
• Compound, which is a geographic crs with an extra vertical 'height' axis attached to it

Although these are the most frequently used, other coordinates systems may be possible.
