Detailed Description

This class respresents a OpenGIS Spatial Reference System, and contains methods for converting between this object organization and well known text (WKT) format. This object is reference counted as one instance of the object is normally shared between many OGRGeometry objects.

Normally application code can fetch needed parameter values for this SRS using GetAttrValue(), but in special cases the underlying parse tree (or OGR_SRSNode objects) can be accessed more directly.

See the tutorial for more information on how to use this class.


Constructor & Destructor Documentation

OGRSpatialReference::OGRSpatialReference ( const char *  pszWKT = NULL  ) 

Constructor.

This constructor takes an optional string argument which if passed should be a WKT representation of an SRS. Passing this is equivelent to not passing it, and then calling importFromWkt() with the WKT string.

Note that newly created objects are given a reference count of one.

The C function OSRNewSpatialReference() does the same thing as this constructor.

Parameters:
pszWKT well known text definition to which the object should be initialized, or NULL (the default).

OGRSpatialReference::~OGRSpatialReference (  )  [virtual]

OGRSpatialReference destructor.

The C function OSRDestroySpatialReference() does the same thing as this method.


Member Function Documentation

The reference count is used keep track of the number of OGRGeometry objects referencing this SRS.

The method does the same thing as the C function OSRReference().

Returns:
the updated reference count.

int OGRSpatialReference::Dereference (  ) 

Decrements the reference count by one.

The method does the same thing as the C function OSRDereference().

Returns:
the updated reference count.

int OGRSpatialReference::GetReferenceCount (  )  const [inline]

Fetch current reference count.

Returns:
the current reference count.

void OGRSpatialReference::Release (  )

The method does the same thing as the C function OSRRelease().

OGRSpatialReference * OGRSpatialReference::Clone (  )  const

Make a duplicate of this OGRSpatialReference.

This method is the same as the C function OSRClone().

Returns:
a new SRS, which becomes the responsibility of the caller.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::exportToWkt ( char **  ppszResult  )  const

Convert this SRS into WKT format.

Note that the returned WKT string should be freed with OGRFree() or CPLFree() when no longer needed. It is the responsibility of the caller.

This method is the same as the C function OSRExportToWkt().

Parameters:
ppszResult the resulting string is returned in this pointer.
Returns:
currently OGRERR_NONE is always returned, but the future it is possible error conditions will develop.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::exportToProj4 ( char **  ppszProj4  )  const

Export coordinate system in PROJ.4 format.

Converts the loaded coordinate reference system into PROJ.4 format to the extent possible. The string returned in ppszProj4 should be deallocated by the caller with CPLFree() when no longer needed.

This method is the equivelent of the C function OSRExportToProj4().

Parameters:
ppszProj4 pointer to which dynamically allocated PROJ.4 definition will be assigned.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code on failure.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::exportToPCI ( char **  ppszProj,
char **  ppszUnits,
double **  ppadfPrjParams 
) const

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromWkt ( char **  ppszInput  ) 

Import from WKT string.

This method will wipe the existing SRS definition, and reassign it based on the contents of the passed WKT string. Only as much of the input string as needed to construct this SRS is consumed from the input string, and the input string pointer is then updated to point to the remaining (unused) input.

This method is the same as the C function OSRImportFromWkt().

Parameters:
ppszInput Pointer to pointer to input. The pointer is updated to point to remaining unused input text.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE if import succeeds, or OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA if it fails for any reason.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromProj4 ( const char *  pszProj4  ) 

Import PROJ.4 coordinate string.

The OGRSpatialReference is initialized from the passed PROJ.4 style coordinate system string. In addition to many +proj formulations which have OGC equivelents, it is also possible to import "+init=epsg:n" style definitions. These are passed to importFromEPSG(). Other init strings (such as the state plane zones) are not currently supported.

Example: pszProj4 = "+proj=utm +zone=11 +datum=WGS84"

This method is the equivelent of the C function OSRImportFromProj4().

Parameters:
pszProj4 the PROJ.4 style string.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA on failure.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromEPSG ( int  nCode  ) 

Initialize SRS based on EPSG GCS or PCS code.

This code uses the GeoTIFF cpl_csv services to access the EPSG CSV data. If frmts/gtiff/libgeotiff isn't linked in, linking will fail. If EPSG tables can't be found at runtime, the method will fail.

This method is the same as the C function OSRImportFromEPSG().

Parameters:
nCode a GCS or PCS code from the horizontal coordinate system table.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success, or an error code on failure.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromESRI ( char **  papszPrj  ) 

Import coordinate system from ESRI .prj format(s).

This function will read the text loaded from an ESRI .prj file, and translate it into an OGRSpatialReference definition. This should support many (but by no means all) old style (Arc/Info 7.x) .prj files, as well as the newer pseudo-OGC WKT .prj files. Note that new style .prj files are in OGC WKT format, but require some manipulation to correct datum names, and units on some projection parameters. This is addressed within importFromESRI() by an automatical call to morphFromESRI().

Currently only GEOGRAPHIC, UTM, STATEPLANE, GREATBRITIAN_GRID, ALBERS, EQUIDISTANT_CONIC, and TRANSVERSE (mercator) projections are supported from old style files.

At this time there is no equivelent exportToESRI() method. Writing old style .prj files is not supported by OGRSpatialReference. However the morphToESRI() and exportToWkt() methods can be used to generate output suitable to write to new style (Arc 8) .prj files.

This function is the equilvelent of the C function OSRImportFromESRI().

Parameters:
papszPrj NULL terminated list of strings containing the definition.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code in case of failure.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromPCI ( const char *  pszProj,
const char *  pszUnits = NULL,
double *  padfPrjParams = NULL 
)

Import coordinate system from PCI projection definition.

PCI software uses 16-character string to specify coordinate system and datum/ellipsoid. You should supply at least this string to the importFromPCI() function.

This function is the equilvelent of the C function OSRImportFromPCI().

Parameters:
pszProj NULL terminated string containing the definition. Looks like "pppppppppppp Ennn" or "pppppppppppp Dnnn", where "pppppppppppp" is a projection code, "Ennn" is an ellipsoid code, "Dnnn" --- a datum code.
pszUnits Grid units code ("DEGREE" or "METRE"). If NULL "METRE" will be used.
padfPrjParams Array of 16 coordinate system parameters:
[0] Spheroid semi major axis [1] Spheroid semi minor axis [2] Reference Longitude [3] Reference Latitude [4] First Standard Parallel [5] Second Standard Parallel [6] False Easting [7] False Northing [8] Scale Factor [9] Height above sphere surface [10] Longitude of 1st point on center line [11] Latitude of 1st point on center line [12] Longitude of 2nd point on center line [13] Latitude of 2nd point on center line [14] Azimuth east of north for center line [15] Landsat satellite number [16] Landsat path number

Particular projection uses different parameters, unused ones may be set to zero. If NULL suppliet instead of array pointer default values will be used (i.e., zeroes).

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code in case of failure.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromUSGS ( long  iProjSys,
long  iZone,
double *  padfPrjParams,
long  iDatum 
)

Import coordinate system from USGS projection definition.

This method will import projection definition in style, used by USGS GCTP software. GCTP operates on angles in packed DMS format (see CPLDecToPackedDMS() function for details), so all angle values (latitudes, longitudes, azimuths, etc.) specified in the padfPrjParams array should be in the packed DMS format.

This function is the equivalent of the C function OSRImportFromUSGS().

Parameters:
iProjSys Input projection system code, used in GCTP.
iZone Input zone for UTM and State Plane projection systems. For Southern Hemisphere UTM use a negative zone code. iZone ignored for all other projections.
padfPrjParams Array of 15 coordinate system parameters. These parameters differs for different projections.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::importFromDict ( const char *  pszDictFile,
const char *  pszCode 
)

Read SRS from WKT dictionary.

This method will attempt to find the indicated coordinate system identity in the indicated dictionary file. If found, the WKT representation is imported and used to initialize this OGRSpatialReference.

More complete information on the format of the dictionary files can be found in the epsg.wkt file in the GDAL data tree. The dictionary files are searched for in the "GDAL" domain using CPLFindFile(). Normally this results in searching /usr/local/share/gdal or somewhere similar.

This method is the same as the C function OSRImportFromDict().

Parameters:
pszDictFile the name of the dictionary file to load.
pszCode the code to lookup in the dictionary.
Returns:

Initializes this spatial reference from a coordinate system defined by an OGC URN prefixed with "urn:ogc:def:crs:" per recommendation paper 06-023r1. Currently EPSG and OGC authority values are supported, including OGC auto codes, but not including CRS1 or CRS88 (NAVD88).

This method is also support through SetFromUserInput() which can normally be used for URNs.

Parameters:
pszURN the urn string.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::morphToESRI (  ) 

Convert in place from ESRI WKT format.

The value notes of this coordinate system as modified in various manners to adhere more closely to the WKT standard. This mostly involves translating a variety of ESRI names for projections, arguments and datums to "standard" names, as defined by Adam Gawne-Cain's reference translation of EPSG to WKT for the CT specification.

This does the same as the C function OSRMorphToESRI().

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE unless something goes badly wrong.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::morphFromESRI (  ) 

Convert in place to ESRI WKT format.

The value nodes of this coordinate system as modified in various manners more closely map onto the ESRI concept of WKT format. This includes renaming a variety of projections and arguments, and stripping out nodes note recognised by ESRI (like AUTHORITY and AXIS).

This does the same as the C function OSRMorphFromESRI().

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE unless something goes badly wrong.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::Validate (  ) 

Validate SRS tokens.

This method attempts to verify that the spatial reference system is well formed, and consists of known tokens. The validation is not comprehensive.

This method is the same as the C function OSRValidate().

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE if all is fine, OGRERR_CORRUPT_DATA if the SRS is not well formed, and OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_SRS if the SRS is well formed, but contains non-standard PROJECTION[] values.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::StripCTParms ( OGR_SRSNode poCurrent = NULL  ) 

Strip OGC CT Parameters.

This method will remove all components of the coordinate system that are specific to the OGC CT Specification. That is it will attempt to strip it down to being compatible with the Simple Features 1.0 specification.

This method is the same as the C function OSRStripCTParms().

Parameters:
poCurrent node to operate on. NULL to operate on whole tree.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::FixupOrdering (  ) 

Correct parameter ordering to match CT Specification.

Some mechanisms to create WKT using OGRSpatialReference, and some imported WKT fail to maintain the order of parameters required according to the BNF definitions in the OpenGIS SF-SQL and CT Specifications. This method attempts to massage things back into the required order.

This method is the same as the C function OSRFixupOrdering().

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code if something goes wrong.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::Fixup (  ) 

Fixup as needed.

Some mechanisms to create WKT using OGRSpatialReference, and some imported WKT, are not valid according to the OGC CT specification. This method attempts to fill in any missing defaults that are required, and fixup ordering problems (using OSRFixupOrdering()) so that the resulting WKT is valid.

This method should be expected to evolve over time to as problems are discovered. The following are amoung the fixup actions this method will take:

This method is the same as the C function OSRFixup().

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code if something goes wrong.

void OGRSpatialReference::SetRoot ( OGR_SRSNode poNewRoot  )

If the object has an existing tree of OGR_SRSNodes, they are destroyed as part of assigning the new root. Ownership of the passed OGR_SRSNode is is assumed by the OGRSpatialReference.

Parameters:
poNewRoot object to assign as root.

OGR_SRSNode * OGRSpatialReference::GetAttrNode ( const char *  pszNodePath  ) 

Find named node in tree.

This method does a pre-order traversal of the node tree searching for a node with this exact value (case insensitive), and returns it. Leaf nodes are not considered, under the assumption that they are just attribute value nodes.

If a node appears more than once in the tree (such as UNIT for instance), the first encountered will be returned. Use GetNode() on a subtree to be more specific.

Parameters:
pszNodePath the name of the node to search for. May contain multiple components such as "GEOGCS|UNITS".
Returns:
a pointer to the node found, or NULL if none.

const char * OGRSpatialReference::GetAttrValue ( const char *  pszNodeName,
int  iAttr = 0 
) const

Fetch indicated attribute of named node.

This method uses GetAttrNode() to find the named node, and then extracts the value of the indicated child. Thus a call to GetAttrValue("UNIT",1) would return the second child of the UNIT node, which is normally the length of the linear unit in meters.

This method does the same thing as the C function OSRGetAttrValue().

Parameters:
pszNodeName the tree node to look for (case insensitive).
iAttr the child of the node to fetch (zero based).
Returns:
the requested value, or NULL if it fails for any reason.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::SetNode ( const char *  pszNodePath,
const char *  pszNewNodeValue 
)

Set attribute value in spatial reference.

Missing intermediate nodes in the path will be created if not already in existance. If the attribute has no children one will be created and assigned the value otherwise the zeroth child will be assigned the value.

This method does the same as the C function OSRSetAttrValue().

Parameters:
pszNodePath full path to attribute to be set. For instance "PROJCS|GEOGCS|UNITS".
pszNewNodeValue value to be assigned to node, such as "meter". This may be NULL if you just want to force creation of the intermediate path.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success.

double  dfInMeters 
)

Set the linear units for the projection.

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success.

double OGRSpatialReference::GetLinearUnits ( char **  ppszName = NULL  )  const

Fetch linear projection units.

If no units are available, a value of "Meters" and 1.0 will be assumed. This method only checks directly under the PROJCS or LOCAL_CS node for units.

This method does the same thing as the C function OSRGetLinearUnits()/

Parameters:
ppszName a pointer to be updated with the pointer to the units name. The returned value remains internal to the OGRSpatialReference and shouldn't be freed, or modified. It may be invalidated on the next OGRSpatialReference call.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::SetAngularUnits ( const char *  pszUnitsName,
double  dfInRadians 
)

This method does the same thing as the C function OSRGetAngularUnits().

Parameters:
ppszName a pointer to be updated with the pointer to the units name. The returned value remains internal to the OGRSpatialReference and shouldn't be freed, or modified. It may be invalidated on the next OGRSpatialReference call.

double OGRSpatialReference::GetPrimeMeridian ( char **  ppszName = NULL  )  const

Fetch prime meridian info.

Returns the offset of the prime meridian from greenwich in degrees, and the prime meridian name (if requested). If no PRIMEM value exists in the coordinate system definition a value of "Greenwich" and an offset of 0.0 is assumed.

If the prime meridian name is returned, the pointer is to an internal copy of the name. It should not be freed, altered or depended on after the next OGR call.

This method is the same as the C function OSRGetPrimeMeridian().

Parameters:

)

Set geographic coordinate system.

This method is used to set the datum, ellipsoid, prime meridian and angular units for a geographic coordinate system. It can be used on it's own to establish a geographic spatial reference, or applied to a projected coordinate system to establish the underlying geographic coordinate system.

This method does the same as the C function OSRSetGeogCS().

Parameters:
pszGeogName user visible name for the geographic coordinate system (not to serve as a key).
pszDatumName key name for this datum. The OpenGIS specification lists some known values, and otherwise EPSG datum names with a standard transformation are considered legal keys.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::SetWellKnownGeogCS ( const char *  pszName  ) 

Set a GeogCS based on well known name.

This may be called on an empty OGRSpatialReference to make a geographic coordinate system, or on something with an existing PROJCS node to set the underlying geographic coordinate system of a projected coordinate system.

The following well known text values are currently supported:

Parameters:
pszName name of well known geographic coordinate system.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success, or OGRERR_FAILURE if the name isn't recognised, the target object is already initialized, or an EPSG value can't be successfully looked up.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::CopyGeogCSFrom ( const OGRSpatialReference poSrcSRS  ) 

Copy GEOGCS from another OGRSpatialReference.

The GEOGCS information is copied into this OGRSpatialReference from another. If this object has a PROJCS root already, the GEOGCS is installed within it, otherwise it is installed as the root.

Parameters:
poSrcSRS the spatial reference to copy the GEOGCS information from.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success or an error code.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::SetFromUserInput ( const char *  pszDefinition  ) 

Set spatial reference from various text formats.

This method will examine the provided input, and try to deduce the format, and then use it to initialize the spatial reference system. It may take the following forms:

  1. Well Known Text definition - passed on to importFromWkt().
  2. "EPSG:n" - number passed on to importFromEPSG().
  3. "AUTO:proj_id,unit_id,lon0,lat0" - WMS auto projections.
  4. "urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::n" - ogc urns
  5. PROJ.4 definitions - passed on to importFromProj4().
  6. filename - file read for WKT, XML or PROJ.4 definition.
  7. well known name accepted by SetWellKnownGeogCS(), such as NAD27, NAD83, WGS84 or WGS72.
  8. WKT (directly or in a file) in ESRI format should be prefixed with ESRI:: to trigger an automatic morphFromESRI().

It is expected that this method will be extended in the future to support XML and perhaps a simplified "minilanguage" for indicating common UTM and State Plane definitions.

This method is intended to be flexible, but by it's nature it is imprecise as it must guess information about the format intended. When possible applications should call the specific method appropriate if the input is known to be in a particular format.

This method does the same thing as the OSRSetFromUserInput() function.

Parameters:
pszDefinition text definition to try to deduce SRS from.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success, or an error code if the name isn't recognised, the definition is corrupt, or an EPSG value can't be successfully looked up.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::SetTOWGS84 ( double  dfDX,
double  dfDY,
double  dfDZ,
double  dfEX = 0.0,
double  dfEY = 0.0,
double  dfEZ = 0.0,
double  dfPPM = 0.0 
)

Set the Bursa-Wolf conversion to WGS84.

This will create the TOWGS84 node as a child of the DATUM. It will fail if there is no existing DATUM node. Unlike most OGRSpatialReference methods it will insert itself in the appropriate order, and will replace an existing TOWGS84 node if there is one.

The parameters have the same meaning as EPSG transformation 9606 (Position Vector 7-param. transformation).

This method is the same as the C function OSRSetTOWGS84().

Parameters:
dfDX X child in meters.

Set the authority for a node.

This method is the same as the C function OSRSetAuthority().

Parameters:
pszTargetKey the partial or complete path to the node to set an authority on. ie. "PROJCS", "GEOGCS" or "GEOGCS|UNIT".
pszAuthority authority name, such as "EPSG".
nCode code for value with this authority.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::AutoIdentifyEPSG (  ) 

Set EPSG authority info if possible.

This method inspects a WKT definition, and adds EPSG authority nodes where an aspect of the coordinate system can be easily and safely corresponded with an EPSG identifier. In practice, this method will evolve over time. In theory it can add authority nodes for any object (ie. spheroid, datum, GEOGCS, units, and PROJCS) that could have an authority node. Mostly this is useful to inserting appropriate PROJCS codes for common formulations (like UTM n WGS84).

If it success the OGRSpatialReference is updated in place, and the method return OGRERR_NONE. If the method fails to identify the general coordinate system OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_SRS is returned but no error message is posted via CPLError().

This method is the same as the C function OSRAutoIdentifyEPSG().

Returns:
OGRERR_NONE or OGRERR_UNSUPPORTED_SRS.

const char * OGRSpatialReference::GetAuthorityCode ( const char *  pszTargetKey  )  const

Get the authority code for a node.

This method is used to query an AUTHORITY[] node from within the WKT tree, and fetch the code value.

While in theory values may be non-numeric, for the EPSG authority all code values should be integral.

This method is the same as the C function OSRGetAuthorityCode().

Parameters:
pszTargetKey the partial or complete path to the node to get an authority from. ie. "PROJCS", "GEOGCS", "GEOGCS|UNIT" or NULL to search for an authority node on the root element.
Returns:
value code from authority node, or NULL on failure. The value returned is internal and should not be freed or modified.

const char * OGRSpatialReference::GetAuthorityName ( const char *  pszTargetKey  )  const

Get the authority name for a node.

This method is used to query an AUTHORITY[] node from within the WKT tree, and fetch the authority name value.

The most common authority is "EPSG".

This method is the same as the C function OSRGetAuthorityName().

Parameters:
pszTargetKey the partial or complete path to the node to get an authority from. ie. "PROJCS", "GEOGCS", "GEOGCS|UNIT" or NULL to search for an authority node on the root element.
Returns:
value code from authority node, or NULL on failure. The value returned is internal and should not be freed or modified.

NOTE: This code should be modified to translate non degree angles into degrees based on the GEOGCS unit. This has not yet been done.

This method is the same as the C function OSRGetProjParm().

Parameters:
pszName the name of the parameter to fetch, from the set of SRS_PP codes in ogr_srs_api.h.
dfDefaultValue the value to return if this parameter doesn't exist.

Returns:
value of parameter.

OGRErr OGRSpatialReference::SetNormProjParm ( const char *  pszName,
double  dfValue 
)

Set a projection parameter with a normalized value.

This method is the same as SetProjParm() except that the value of the parameter passed in is assumed to be in "normalized" form (decimal degrees for angular values, meters for linear values. The values are converted in a form suitable for the GEOGCS and linear units in effect.

This method is the same as the C function OSRSetNormProjParm().

Parameters:
pszName the parameter name, which should be selected from the macros in ogr_srs_api.h, such as SRS_PP_CENTRAL_MERIDIAN.
dfValue value to assign.
Returns:
OGRERR_NONE on success.

double OGRSpatialReference::GetNormProjParm ( const char *  pszName,
double  dfDefaultValue = 0.0,
OGRErr *  pnErr = NULL 
) const

Fetch a normalized projection parameter value.

This method is the same as GetProjParm() except that the value of the parameter is "normalized" into degrees or meters depending on whether it is linear or angular.

This method is the same as the C function OSRGetNormProjParm().

Parameters:
pszName the name of the parameter to fetch, from the set of SRS_PP codes in ogr_srs_api.h.
dfDefaultValue the value to return if this parameter doesn't exist.
pnErr place to put error code on failure. Ignored if NULL.
Returns:
value of parameter.
