Detailed Description

A geodetic datum defines a reference to measure Earth's surface.

Planimetric datum parameters are used for defining geodetic coordinates, which are necessary to establish a map projection system.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

te::srs::Datum::Datum	(	const std::string &	name = "",
		Ellipsoid *	ellps = 0
	)

Constructor with parameters.

Parameters

name	Datum name (default empty string)..
ellps	Pointer to the Ellipsoid associated to the Datum. Default null. Class takes the pointer ownership.

te::srs::Datum::~Datum

(

)

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

const Ellipsoid* te::srs::Datum::getEllipsoid

(

)

const

Returns the Ellipsoid associated to the Datum.

const std::string& te::srs::Datum::getName

(

)

const

Returns the Datum name.

const std::vector<double>& te::srs::Datum::getToWGS84Params

(

)

const

Returns the WGS84 shifting parameters.

std::string te::srs::Datum::getWKT

(

)

const

Returns a WKT string that represent the Datum.

void te::srs::Datum::setEllipsoid

(

Ellipsoid *

ellps

)

Sets the Ellipsoid associated to the Datum.

Parameters

ellps

Pointer to the ellipsoid. Do not pass null. Class takes the pointer ownership.

void te::srs::Datum::setName

(

const std::string &

name

)

Sets the Datum name.

Parameters

name	The Datum name.

void te::srs::Datum::setToWGS84Params

(

const std::vector< double > &

params

)

Sets the Datum shifting parameters relative to WGS84.

This indicates a list of up to 7 Bursa Wolf transformation parameters. These parameters can be used to approximate a transformation from a given datum to the WGS84.

Parameters

params

A vector of shifting parameters.
