Package org.geotoolkit.metadata.iso.spatial

Spatial representation implementation.

Description

Class Summary

AbstractGeolocationInformation	Information used to determine geographic location corresponding to image location.
AbstractSpatialRepresentation	Method used to represent geographic information in the dataset.
DefaultDimension	Axis properties.
DefaultGCP	Information on ground control point.
DefaultGCPCollection	Information about a control point collection.
DefaultGeometricObjects	Number of objects, listed by geometric object type, used in the dataset.
DefaultGeorectified	Grid whose cells are regularly spaced in a geographic (i.e., lat / long) or map coordinate system defined in the Spatial Referencing System (SRS) so that any cell in the grid can be geolocated given its grid coordinate and the grid origin, cell spacing, and orientation indication of whether or not geographic.
DefaultGeoreferenceable	Grid with cells irregularly spaced in any given geographic/map projection coordinate system, whose individual cells can be geolocated using geolocation information supplied with the data but cannot be geolocated from the grid properties alone.
DefaultGridSpatialRepresentation	Basic information required to uniquely identify a resource or resources.
DefaultVectorSpatialRepresentation	Information about the vector spatial objects in the dataset.
PixelTranslation	The translation to apply for different values of PixelOrientation or PixelInCell.

Package org.geotoolkit.metadata.iso.spatial Description

Spatial representation implementation. An explanation for this package is provided in the OpenGIS® javadoc. The remaining discussion on this page is specific to the Geotk implementation.

Overview
For a global overview of metadata in Geotk, see the Metadata page on the project web site.

Parameterized types
In GeoAPI interfaces, most collections are typed with wildcards, for example Collection<? extends Citation>. The Geotk implementation removes the wildcards and declares Collection<Citation> instead. This allows collections to be live. Consequently it is possible to add new elements directly in an existing collection using code like getCitations().add(myCitation) instead than setting the collection as a whole with setCitations(myCitations).
