Detailed Description

This class defines the Albers Equal Area Conic projection.

This conic projection transfers the image of the globe to a cone either secant or tangent to the surface of the earth.

When used to display maps of the conterminous United States, this projection is often used with the first secant latitude set to 29.5DN and the second secant latitude set to 45.5DN.

This projection applies both to spherical and non-spherical ellipsoids and implements an inverse function.

This projection is Equal Area.

	)

This constructor initializes an instance of the class IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection.

Parameters

lat1	The first secant latitude, in radian. If omitted, the first secant latitude is set to 29.5 degrees.

Member Function Documentation

virtual IlvMapsError IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::eForward ( IlvCoordinate & ll ) const

protectedvirtual

Must be redefined in subclasses to implement the projection for a non spherical ellipsoid.

The default implementation returns IlvProjection::UnsupportedFeatureError().

Parameters

ll	Contains the longitude and latitude coordinates in radian (x = longitude, y = latitude).

Returns: An error code.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

virtual IlvMapsError IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::eInverse ( IlvCoordinate & xy ) const

protectedvirtual

Implements the inverse projection for a non spherical ellipsoid.

The default implementation returns IlvProjection::UnsupportedFeatureError().

Parameters

xy	Contains the Cartesian coordinates to inverse.

Returns: An error code.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

virtual IlvMapsError IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::setEllipsoid ( const IlvEllipsoid & ellipsoid )

virtual

Sets the ellipsoid used for the projection.

This virtual member function sets the ellipsoid used for the projection. Most of the projections are initialized with a spherical ellipsoid with a radius of 6,370,997 meters.
This function returns IlvMaps::NoError() if the operation is successful or an error status if you specify a non spherical ellipsoid and your type does not support non spherical.

Parameters

ellipsoid The ellipsoid used for the projection.

Returns: IlvMapsError if the ellipsoid does not match the projection.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

virtual void IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::setLLCenter	(	IlDouble	lon,
		IlDouble	lat
	)

virtual

Specifies the central meridian and the central parallel (in radian) associated with the projection.

By default, theses values are set to 0. This function is virtual because it can be overridden by subclasses of IlvProjection to update the internal parameters when the center is changed.

Parameters

lon	The central meridian in radian.
lat	The central parallel in radian.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

virtual IlvMapsError IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::setSecantLatitudes ( const IlvCoordinate & secant )

virtual

Sets the latitudes at which the cone of the projection intersects with the earth.

Parameters

secant A vector that contains two values: secant.x represents the first latitude at which the cone intersects with the earth. secant.y represents the second latitude at which the cone intersects with the earth.
Both values are expressed in radian.

Returns: An error status if the latitudes specify a limiting form, that is, if secant.x = -secant.y or secant.x = secant.y = PI/2.

Reimplemented from IlvConicProjection.

Reimplemented in IlvLambertEqualAreaConicProjection.

virtual IlvMapsError IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::sForward ( IlvCoordinate & ll ) const

protectedvirtual

Must be redefined in subclasses to implement the projection for a sphere.

Parameters

ll	Contains the longitude and latitude coordinates in radian (x = longitude, y = latitude).

Implements IlvProjection.

virtual IlvMapsError IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::sInverse ( IlvCoordinate & xy ) const

protectedvirtual

Must be redefined in subclasses to implement the inverse projection for a sphere.

The default implementation returns IlvProjection::UnsupportedFeatureError().

Parameters

xy	Contains the Cartesian coordinates to inverse.

Returns: An error code.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

virtual void IlvAlbersEqualAreaProjection::write ( IlvOutputFile & outputFile ) const

virtual

Saves the parameters of a projection to the specified output file.

It must be overridden by subclasses of IlvProjection that need to save additional parameters. This function should not be directly called; use the save function instead.

Parameters

outputFile The file to write the projection parameters to.

Reimplemented from IlvConicProjection.

Reimplemented in IlvLambertEqualAreaConicProjection.
