Enum Class Convention
- All Implemented Interfaces:
- Serializable,- Comparable<Convention>,- Constable
WKT 1 variants
The WKT 2 format should be parsed and formatted consistently by all software products. But the WKT 1 format has been interpreted differently by various implementers. Apache SIS can adapt itself to different WKT variants, sometimes automatically. But some aspects cannot be guessed. One noticeable source of confusion is the unit of measurement ofPRIMEM[…] and PARAMETER[…] elements:
 - The unit of the Prime Meridian shall be the angular unit of the enclosing Geographic CRS according the OGC 01-009 (Coordinate transformation services) specification.
- An older specification — Simple Features — was unclear on this matter and has been interpreted by many software products as fixing the unit to decimal degrees.
- Some software products support only (longitude, latitude) axis order
       and ignore completely all AXIS[…]elements in the WKT.
WKT1_COMMON_UNITS enumeration allows parsing and formatting using the older interpretation.
 The WKT1_IGNORE_AXES enumeration mimics the most minimalist WKT 1 parsers,
 but should be avoided when not imposed by compatibility reasons.- Since:

Enum Constant Details- 
WKT2The ISO 19162 format, also known as “WKT 2”. This convention follows the ISO recommendations.Unless otherwise specified by WKTFormat.setNameAuthority(Citation), projections and parameters formatted with this convention will use the EPSG names when available.This is the default convention used by FormattableObject.toWKT()and for newWKTFormatinstances.- See Also:
 
- 
WKT2_SIMPLIFIEDThe ISO 19162 format with omission of some optional elements. This convention is identical to theWKT2convention except for the following aspects:- By default long keywords are used instead of short ones
       (e.g. "GeodeticCRS"instead of"GeodCRS") except for the"Unit"keyword, because they match the class or interface names.
- PrimeMeridianelement omitted if the meridian is Greenwich.
- Axiselement omits the- Ordersub-element.
- Unitelements are less verbose:- Ellipsoidand- VerticalExtentelements omit the- LengthUnitsub-element if that unit is- Units.METRE.
- Parameterelements omit the- LengthUnitsub-element if that unit is the same than the unit of the- ProjectedCRSaxes.
- Parameterand- PrimeMeridianelements omit the- AngleUnitsub-element if that unit is the same than the unit of the- GeodeticCRSaxes.
- Axes unit is declared only once after the axes instead of repeated for each axis if the unit is the same for all axes.
- AngleUnit,- LengthUnit,- ScaleUnit,- ParametricUnitand- TimeUnitare formatted as plain- Unitelements.
 
- Idis formatted only for the root element (omit parameters and operation methods- Id).
 This is the default convention used by FormattableObject.toString().
- By default long keywords are used instead of short ones
       (e.g.

WKT1The OGC 01-009 format, also known as “WKT 1”. A definition for this format is shown in Extended Backus Naur Form (EBNF) on GeoAPI.Unless otherwise specified by WKTFormat.setNameAuthority(Citation), projections and parameters formatted with this convention will use the OGC names when available.Differences compared to WKT 2WKT 1 and WKT 2 differ in their keywords and syntax, but also in more subtle ways regarding axis names, parameter and code list values. For example, inGeocentricCRS, WKT 1 uses a legacy set of Cartesian axes which were defined in OGC 01-009. Those axes use the Other, Easting and Northing axis directions instead of the geocentric ones. For more uniform handling of CRS objects in client code, SIS parser replaces some WKT 1 conventions by the ISO ones when possible.Geocentric axis directions ISO 19111 OGC 01-009 Description Geocentric X Other Toward prime meridian Geocentric Y Easting Toward 90°E longitude Geocentric Z Northing Toward north pole Coordinate system axis names CRS type WKT1 names ISO abbreviations Geographic Lon, Lat λ, φ Vertical H H or h Projected X, Y E, N Geocentric X, Y, Z X, Y, Z - See Also:

WKT1_COMMON_UNITSThe Simple Feature format, also known as “WKT 1”. Simple Feature is anterior to OGC 01-009 and defines the same format, but was unclear about the unit of measurement for prime meridians and projection parameters. Consequently, many implementations interpreted those angular units as fixed to degrees instead than being context-dependent.This convention is identical to WKT1except for the following aspects:- The angular units of PRIMEMandPARAMETERelements are always degrees, no matter the units of the enclosingGEOGCSelement.
- Unit names use American spelling instead of the international ones (e.g. "meter" instead of "metre").
 
- The angular units of 
- 
WKT1_IGNORE_AXESThe Simple Feature format without parsing of axis elements. This convention is identical toWKT1_COMMON_UNITSexcept that allAXIS[…]elements are ignored. Since the WKT 1 specification said that the default axis order shall be (x,y) or (longitude, latitude), ignoringAXIS[…]elements is equivalent to forcing the coordinate systems to that default order.Note that AXIS[…]elements still need to be well formed even when parsing a text with this convention. Malformed axis elements will continue to cause aParseExceptiondespite their content being ignored.This convention may be useful for compatibility with some other software products that do not handle axis order correctly. But except when imposed by such compatibility reasons, this convention should be avoided as much as possible. - Since:

- 
INTERNALA special convention for formatting objects as stored internally by Apache SIS. The result is similar to the one produced using theWKT2_SIMPLIFIEDconvention, with the following differences:- All quoted texts (not only the remarks) preserve non-ASCII characters.
- Map projections are shown as SIS stores them internally, i.e. with the separation between linear and non-linear steps, rather than as a single operation.
- Parameterelements omit the unit of measurement if that unit is equal to the default unit (as declared in the parameter descriptor).
- CompoundCRSelements show nested compound CRS if any (the structure is not flattened).
- Idelements are formatted for child elements in addition to the root one.
- Idelement omits the- URIsub-element if the latter is derived by Apache SIS from the- Idproperties.
- Remarkselement is formatted for all identified objects, not only CRS or coordinate operations.
- Additional attributes not defined by ISO 19162 may be formatted:
     - ImageDatumincludes the Pixel in Cell code.
- TemporalDatumincludes the Origin date.
