All Implemented Interfaces:

public class TLcdObliqueMercator extends ALcdObliqueCylindrical
Oblique Mercator projection.

Introduction

Oblique Mercator projection for the State Plane Coordinate System. There are several ways to define this projection. Only the one using an origin and an azimuth at that origin is considered now.

Properties

  • The projection is conformal.
  • Two particular meridians 180° apart are straight lines.
  • Other meridians and parallels are complex curves.
  • Scale on the spherical form is true along the chosen central line.
  • It is also true along a great circle at an oblique angle or along two straight lines parallel to the chosen central line.
  • Scale becomes infinite 90° from the central line.

Example

Sample code


 ILcdProjection projection =
     new TLcdObliqueMercator(-30.0, 20.0, 30.0);
 

Implementation aspects

The equations of the oblique mercator projection are taken from [Snyder1987].
