Detailed Description

This class defines Universal Transverse Mercator projections, also known as UTM projections.

A UTM projection is a preconfigured form of the Transverse Mercator projection. It is generally used with non-spherical ellipsoids. UTM projections usually apply to 6-degree longitudinal strips extending from 84S to 80N. These strips are called UTM zones, with Zone 1 starting at 180W and Zone 60 ending at 180E. The central meridian is constrained to 6-degree intervals starting at 3 degrees. The projection automatically adjusts to the value nearest to the user's entry. A false easting of 500,000 meters is automatically added.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection ( IlUShort  zone = 30)

Initializes an instance of the class IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection and specifies the UTM zone. The ellipsoid is set to the WGS84 ellipsoid.

Parameters
zoneThe UTM zone.
IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection ( IlDouble  lon)

Creates an instance of the IlvUniverseTransverseMercatorProjection and specifies the central meridian.

The ellipsoid is set to the WGS84 ellipsoid. The zone specified by the lon parameter is adjusted to the nearest UTM zone at the specified longitude.

Parameters
lonThe longitude.

Member Function Documentation

IlUShort IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::getZone ( ) const

Returns the UTM zone to which the projection applies.

Returns
The UTM zone.
virtual IlBoolean IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::isSouth ( ) const
virtual

Checks if projection is for applications portraying the southern hemisphere.

This member function returns IlTrue if the projection is set for applications portraying the southern hemisphere.

Returns
IlTrue if the projection is set for applications portraying the southern hemisphere IlFalse otherwise.
virtual void IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::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
lonThe central meridian in radian.
latThe central parallel in radian.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

virtual void IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::setScaleFactor ( IlDouble  k0)
virtual

Sets the scale factor k0 applied to the central meridian. By default, the scale factor is 1.

Parameters
k0The scale factor applied to the central meridian.

Reimplemented from IlvTransverseMercatorProjection.

void IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::setSouth ( IlBoolean  south)

Sets a false northing for applications portraying the southern hemisphere.

In applications portraying the southern hemisphere, this member function should be called with the Boolean argument south set to IlTrue, in which case a false northing of 10,000,000 meters is added.

Parameters
southSpecifies if a false northing is to be set.
IlBoolean IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::setZone ( IlUShort  zone)

Sets the UTM zone to which the projection applies.

The zone index must be included in the range 1 to 60 because there are 60 UTM zones extending from west to east. Zone 1 extends from 180W to 174W. Zone 60 extends from 174E to 180E.
The function returns IlFalse if an invalid UTM zone is specified, and leaves the projection unchanged.

Returns
IlFalse if the UTM zone is invalid, IlTrue otherwise.
virtual void IlvUniversalTransverseMercatorProjection::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
outputFileThe file to write the projection parameters to.

Reimplemented from IlvTransverseMercatorProjection.
