All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable, Formattable, LenientComparable, PrimeMeridian, IdentifiedObject

@Immutable
public class DefaultPrimeMeridian
extends AbstractIdentifiedObject
implements PrimeMeridian

Field Detail

GREENWICH

public static final DefaultPrimeMeridian GREENWICH

The Greenwich meridian (EPSG:8901), with angular measurements in decimal degrees.

Constructor Detail

DefaultPrimeMeridian

public DefaultPrimeMeridian(PrimeMeridian meridian)

Constructs a new prime meridian with the same values than the specified one. This copy constructor provides a way to convert an arbitrary implementation into a Geotk 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:

meridian - The prime meridian to copy.

Since:

2.2

DefaultPrimeMeridian

public DefaultPrimeMeridian(String name,
                            double greenwichLongitude)

Constructs a prime meridian from a name. The greenwichLongitude value is assumed in decimal degrees.

Parameters:

name - The datum name.

greenwichLongitude - The longitude value relative to the Greenwich Meridian.

DefaultPrimeMeridian

public DefaultPrimeMeridian(String name,
                            double greenwichLongitude,
                            Unit<Angle> angularUnit)

Constructs a prime meridian from a name.

Parameters:

name - The datum name.

greenwichLongitude - The longitude value relative to the Greenwich Meridian.

angularUnit - The angular unit of the longitude.

DefaultPrimeMeridian

public DefaultPrimeMeridian(Map<String,?> properties,
                            double greenwichLongitude,
                            Unit<Angle> angularUnit)

Constructs a prime meridian from a set of properties. The properties map is given unchanged to the super-class constructor.

Parameters:

properties - Set of properties. Should contains at least "name".

greenwichLongitude - The longitude value relative to the Greenwich Meridian.

angularUnit - The angular unit of the longitude.

Method Detail

castOrCopy

public static DefaultPrimeMeridian castOrCopy(PrimeMeridian object)

Returns a Geotk prime meridian implementation with the same values than the given arbitrary implementation. If the given object is null, then this method returns null. Otherwise if the given object is already a Geotk implementation, then the given object is returned unchanged. Otherwise a new Geotk implementation is created and initialized to the attribute values of the given object.

Parameters:

object - The object to get as a Geotk implementation, or null if none.

Returns:

A Geotk implementation containing the values of the given object (may be the given object itself), or null if the argument was null.

Since:

3.18

wrap

@Deprecated
public static DefaultPrimeMeridian wrap(PrimeMeridian object)

Deprecated. Renamed castOrCopy.

Parameters:

object - The object to get as a Geotk implementation, or null if none.

Returns:

The given object as a Geotk implementation.

getGreenwichLongitude

public double getGreenwichLongitude()

Longitude of the prime meridian measured from the Greenwich meridian, positive eastward. The greenwichLongitude initial value is zero, and that value shall be used when the meridian name value is "Greenwich".

Specified by:

getGreenwichLongitude in interface PrimeMeridian

Returns:

The prime meridian Greenwich longitude, in angular unit.

getGreenwichLongitude

public double getGreenwichLongitude(Unit<Angle> targetUnit)

Returns the longitude value relative to the Greenwich Meridian, expressed in the specified units. This convenience method makes it easier to obtain longitude in decimal degrees (getGreenwichLongitude(NonSI.DEGREE_ANGLE)), regardless of the underlying angular units of this prime meridian.

Parameters:

targetUnit - The unit in which to express longitude.

Returns:

The Greenwich longitude in the given units.

getAngularUnit

public Unit<Angle> getAngularUnit()

Returns the angular unit of the Greenwich longitude.

Specified by:

getAngularUnit in interface PrimeMeridian

equals

public boolean equals(Object object,
                      ComparisonMode mode)

Compare this prime meridian with the specified object for equality.

Specified by:

equals in interface LenientComparable

Overrides:

equals in class AbstractIdentifiedObject

Parameters:

object - The object to compare to this.

mode - STRICT for performing a strict comparison, or IGNORE_METADATA for comparing only properties relevant to transformations.

Returns:

true if both objects are equal.

computeHashCode

protected int computeHashCode()

Computes a hash value for this identified object. This method is invoked by AbstractIdentifiedObject.hashCode() when first needed.

Implementation specific feature
In the Geotk implementation, the name, identifiers and remarks are not used for hash code computation. Consequently two identified objects will return the same hash value if they are equal in the sense of equals(…, ComparisonMode.IGNORE_METADATA). This feature allows users to implement metadata-insensitive HashMap.

Overrides:

computeHashCode in class AbstractIdentifiedObject

Returns:

The hash code value. This value may change between different execution of the Geotk library.

formatWKT

public String formatWKT(Formatter formatter)

Formats the inner part of a Well Known Text (WKT) element.

Specified by:

formatWKT in interface Formattable

Overrides:

formatWKT in class FormattableObject

Parameters:

formatter - The formatter to use.

Returns:

The WKT element name, which is "PRIMEM".
