ArcGIS Runtime SDK for iOS

Allows discovery and management of the transformations used to convert coordinates between different datums.
The transformation catalog class provides a mechanism for discovering available AGSDatumTransformation
objects. You can retrieve the default transformation used internally by the ArcGIS Runtime to convert coordinates, and find other available transformations. An area of interest may be taken into account.
This class also allows you to set the location where Projection Engine data files needed for some transformations are found on local storage. The projectionEngineDirectory (AGSTransformationCatalog)
property must be set before using any geometry classes.
The default transformation used when reprojecting geometries is the most suitable available transformation across the area covered by the input and output spatial references. You can sometimes get a more suitable transformation for work within a smaller area by specifying the extent of your specific work area, using transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest: (AGSTransformationCatalog)
.
+ (nullable NSURL *) projectionEngineDirectory |
Returns the directory of the Projection Engine files on the local file system.
+ (BOOL) setProjectionEngineDirectory: | (nullable NSURL *) | directory | |
error: | (NSError **) | error | |
Sets the directory of the Projection Engine files on the local file system.
+ (nullable AGSDatumTransformation *) transformationForInputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | inputSpatialReference | |
outputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | outputSpatialReference | |
Returns the best usable (default) transformation to transform between the input and output spatial references, without taking into account an area of interest.
The default transformation is the one used in cases such as calling projectGeometry:toSpatialReference: (AGSGeometryEngine)
without specifying a transformation.
inputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the input. |
outputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the output. |
AGSDatumTransformation
instance that represents the best choice given the parameters. Always returns a usable transformation where AGSDatumTransformation::missingProjectionEngineFiles
is NO
. Returns nil
if no usable transformation is available for the given input parameters, or if no transformation is required. Prior to version 100.9, this method returned an AGSGeographicTransformation
. From version 100.9 onwards, if both AGSTransformationCatalog::inputSpatialReference
and AGSTransformationCatalog::outputSpatialReference
have a vertical coordinate system, this method returns an AGSHorizontalVerticalTransformation
instance. If either AGSSpatialReference
does not have a vertical coordinate system, an AGSGeographicTransformation
is returned. To replicate the former behavior, use the transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest:ignoreVertical:
method, passing in YES
for ignoreVertical
. + (nullable AGSDatumTransformation *) transformationForInputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | inputSpatialReference | |
outputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | outputSpatialReference | |
areaOfInterest: | (nullable AGSEnvelope *) | areaOfInterest | |
Returns the best usable transformation to transform between the input and output spatial references, taking into account the area of interest, if specified.
inputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the input. |
outputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the output. |
areaOfInterest | The bounding box of coordinates to be transformed, or nil to consider the entire world extent. |
AGSDatumTransformation
instance that represents the best choice given the parameters. Always returns a usable transformation where AGSDatumTransformation::missingProjectionEngineFiles
is NO
. Returns nil
if no usable transformation is available for the given input parameters, or if no transformation is required. Prior to version 100.9, this method returned an AGSGeographicTransformation
. From version 100.9 onwards, if both AGSTransformationCatalog::inputSpatialReference
and AGSTransformationCatalog::outputSpatialReference
have a vertical coordinate system, this method returns an AGSHorizontalVerticalTransformation
instance. If either AGSSpatialReference
does not have a vertical coordinate system, an AGSGeographicTransformation
is returned. To replicate the former behavior, use the transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest:ignoreVertical:
method, passing in YES
for ignoreVertical
. + (nullable AGSDatumTransformation *) transformationForInputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | inputSpatialReference | |
outputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | outputSpatialReference | |
areaOfInterest: | (nullable AGSEnvelope *) | areaOfInterest | |
ignoreVertical: | (BOOL) | ignoreVertical | |
Returns the best usable transformation used to transform between the input and output spatial references, taking into account the area of interest, if specified. Optionally disregards any vertical transformations.
Use this method to determine whether or not any vertical coordinate systems set on the spatial reference parameters should be accounted for in the returned transformation. This method can be used to replicate the former (prior to version 100.9.0) behavior of the transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:
and transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest:
methods:
NO
for ignoreVertical
is equivalent to calling transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest:
YES
for ignoreVertical
is equivalent to calling transformationForInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest:
in releases prior to 100.9.0 inputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the input. |
outputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the output. |
areaOfInterest | The bounding box of coordinates to be transformed, or nil to consider the entire world extent. |
ignoreVertical | YES if AGSTransformationCatalog should ignore any vertical coordinate system set on the AGSTransformationCatalog::inputSpatialReference or AGSTransformationCatalog::outputSpatialReference , and only consider horizontal (geographic) transformations; NO otherwise. |
AGSDatumTransformation
instance that represents the best choice given the parameters. Always returns a usable transformation where AGSDatumTransformation::missingProjectionEngineFiles
is NO
. The specific type returned depends on the given value of the ignoreVertical
parameter. Returns nil
if no transformation is required for the given input parameters, or if no usable transformation is available. + (NSArray<AGSDatumTransformation*> *) transformationsBySuitabilityWithInputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | inputSpatialReference | |
outputSpatialReference: | (AGSSpatialReference *) | outputSpatialReference | |
Returns a list representing the datum transformations suitable for projecting between spatial references without taking into account an area of interest.
The list is ordered in descending order by suitability, with the most suitable being first in the list.
Some transformations require a supporting Projection Engine (PE) dataset to function correctly, and ArcGIS Runtime must be able to locate these datasets. If the datasets cannot be located, the transformation is not currently usable, and AGSDatumTransformation::missingProjectionEngineFiles
is YES
. The list may include transformations like this. To use such transformations, ensure projectionEngineDirectory
is set correctly, and that the required dataset is available within that location. Use AGSGeographicTransformationStep::projectionEngineFilenames
and AGSHorizontalVerticalTransformationStep::projectionEngineFilenames
to determine the dataset required for a specific transformation instance.
inputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the input. |
outputSpatialReference | The spatial reference to use as the output. |
NSArray
containing AGSDatumTransformation
objects, each suitable for transforming between the given input and output spatial references. Prior to version 100.9, this method only considered geographic coordinate systems, and the returned array of AGSDatumTransformation
objects were of the subtype AGSGeographicTransformation
. A geographic transformation is not required when input and output spatial references have the same underlying geographic coordinate system, in which case an empty list was returned. From version 100.9 onwards, if both AGSTransformationCatalog::inputSpatialReference
and AGSTransformationCatalog::outputSpatialReference
have a vertical coordinate system, this method returns an AGSHorizontalVerticalTransformation
instance. If either AGSSpatialReference
does not have a vertical coordinate system, an AGSGeographicTransformation
is returned. A geographic transformation is not needed when input and output spatial references have the same underlying geographic (horizontal) coordinate system. A vertical transformation is not needed if both datums (for ellipsoidal heights) or vertical datums (for gravity-related heights) are the same. If neither type of transformation is needed, an empty collection is returned. To replicate the former behavior, use the transformationsBySuitabilityWithInputSpatialReference:outputSpatialReference:areaOfInterest:ignoreVertical:
method, passing in YES
for ignoreVertical
