All Superinterfaces:

ITransformation, Serializable

All Known Subinterfaces:

ICompositeGeoTransformation, ICoordinateFrameTransformation, IGeocentricTranslation, IGeographic2DOffsetTransformation, IGridTransformation, ILongitudeRotationTransformation, IMolodenskyBadekasTransformation, IMolodenskyTransformation, INullTransformation, IPositionVectorTransformation, IUnitChangeTransformation

All Known Implementing Classes:

AbridgedMolodenskyTransformation, CompositeGeoTransformation, CoordinateFrameTransformation, GeocentricTranslation, Geographic2DOffsetTransformation, HARNTransformation, LongitudeRotationTransformation, MolodenskyBadekasTransformation, MolodenskyTransformation, NADCONTransformation, NTv2Transformation, NullTransformation, PositionVectorTransformation, UnitChangeTransformation

public interface IGeoTransformation
extends ITransformation, Serializable

Provides access to members that define a geographic (datum) transformation.

Description

Most methods and properties are inherited from ITransformation. Each geographic (datum) transformation also has a name, a 'from', and a 'to' spatial reference.

Remarks

Of the ITransformation interface, only the TransformPointsFF method is implemented.

Product Availability

Available with ArcGIS Engine, ArcGIS Desktop, and ArcGIS Server.

Method Summary

String	getName() The name of the geographic transformation.
void	getSpatialReferences(ISpatialReference[] from, ISpatialReference[] to) Returns the from and to spatial references for the transformation.
void	putSpatialReferences(ISpatialReference from, ISpatialReference to) Sets the from and to spatial references for the transformation.
void	setName(String name) The name of the geographic transformation.
