Cartography Properties |
The Cartography type exposes the following members.
Properties| Name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
 | EastOrigin |
Get the origin easting coordinate of the local grid coordinate system.
For geographical map projections ((lon,lat) coordinates), this has no meaning (has the same value as the LonOrigin) |
| LatOrigin |
Get the origin latitude coordinate of the local grid coordinate system.
|
| LonOrigin |
Get the origin longitude coordinate of the local grid coordinate system.
|
| NorthOrigin |
Get the origin northing coordinate of the local grid coordinate system.
For geographical map projections ((lon,lat) coordinates), this has no meaning (has the same value as the LatOrigin) |
| Orientation |
Get the orientation of the local grid coordinate system in the geographical coordinate system.
The orientation is the angle in degrees between true north and the coordinate system y-axis in degrees, measured positive clockwise from true north. |
| OrientationProj |
Get the orientation of the local grid coordinate system in the projected coordinate system.
The orientation is the angle in degrees between projection north and the coordinate system y-axis in degrees, measured positive clockwise from projection north. For geographical map projections ((lon,lat) coordinates), this has no meaning (has the same value as the Orientation) |
| Projection |
Get the map projection that this cartography object uses.
|
| ProjectionName |
The short name of a projection.
The short name is not unique amongst all WKT projections If the ProjectionString is not a WKT projection string, the ProjectionString itself is returned as the short name. |
| ProjectionNorth | Obsolete.
Returns the angle between projection north and a line parallel to the
local grid.
This is NOT the same as the Orientation, the orientation is towards true north, this is towards projection north. |
| ProjectionString |
Returns the WKT projection string, or one of the projection abbreviation strings.
