Interface ILcdEllipsoidFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:
TLcdDMA1987bEllipsoidFactory, TLcdJPLEllipsoidFactory
public interface ILcdEllipsoidFactory
An ILcdEllipsoidFactory is an object to create ILcdEllipsoid objects (Factory pattern).

Each ILcdEllipsoidFactory has a set of integers, called ellipsoidIds. To each ellipsoidId corresponds a predefined ellipsoid (e.g., the ellipsoid WGS_1984). It is up to the implementations of the ILcdEllipsoidFactory which predefined ellipsoids to support.
