Detailed Description

This class defines the Azimuthal Equidistant projection.

Library: ilvmaps

With Azimuthal projections, also called planar projections, the spherical globe is projected onto a flat surface. This type of projection is often used to represent the regions around the Poles. The plane surface is therefore generally placed above the North or the South Pole.

With Azimuthal Equidistant projections, distances from the center are true. These projections are used to show air-route distances, which appear as straight lines when drawn from the projection center.

CADGR files representing polar areas are projected with this projection.

This class applies both to spherical and nonspherical ellipsoids and implements an inverse function.

This projection is neither Conformal nor Equal Area.

Member Function Documentation

◆ eForward()

virtual IlvMapsError IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::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
llContains the longitude and latitude coordinates in radian (x = longitude, y = latitude).
Returns
An error code.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

◆ eInverse()

virtual IlvMapsError IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::eInverse ( IlvCoordinate xy) const
protectedvirtual

Implements the inverse projection for a non spherical ellipsoid.

The default implementation returns IlvProjection::UnsupportedFeatureError().

Parameters
xyContains the Cartesian coordinates to inverse.
Returns
An error code.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

◆ isGuam()

IlBoolean IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::isGuam ( ) const

Inidicates if the Guam elliptical equation is used.

Returns
IlTrue if the Guam elliptical equation is used, IlFalse otherwise.

◆ setEllipsoid()

virtual IlvMapsError IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::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
ellipsoidThe ellipsoid used for the projection.
Returns
IlvMapsError if the ellipsoid does not match the projection.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

◆ setGuam()

void IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::setGuam ( IlBoolean  guam)

Sets the projection to use the Guam equation, which is an alternate form of the projection for an ellipsoid.

If the Guam argument is set to IlTrue, the Guam elliptical equation is used. By default, it is set to IlFalse, which means that the Guam equation is not used.

Parameters
guamSpecifies if the Guam equation is to be used.

◆ setLLCenter()

virtual void IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::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.

◆ sForward()

virtual IlvMapsError IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::sForward ( IlvCoordinate ll) const
protectedvirtual

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

Parameters
llContains the longitude and latitude coordinates in radian.
Returns
An error code.

Implements IlvProjection.

◆ sInverse()

virtual IlvMapsError IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::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
xyContains the Cartesian coordinates to inverse.
Returns
An error code.

Reimplemented from IlvProjection.

◆ write()

virtual void IlvApproximateAzimuthalEquidistantProjection::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 IlvProjection.
