The advantage of this +approach is that the user has not to care about the life-cycle of the +instances (and this makes the code leak-free by design). The only point of +attention is to make sure no reference cycles are made. This is the case for +all classes, except the CoordinateOperation class that point to CRS for +sourceCRS and targetCRS members, whereas DerivedCRS point to a Conversion +instance (which derives from CoordinateOperation). This issue was detected in +the ISO-19111 standard. The solution adopted here is to use std::weak_ptr +in the CoordinateOperation class to avoid the cycle. This design artefact is +transparent to users.</p> +<p>Another important design point is that all ISO19111 objects are immutable after +creation, that is they only have getters that do not modify their states. +Consequently they could possibly use in a thread-safe way. There are however +classes like PROJStringFormatter, WKTFormatter, DatabaseContext, AuthorityFactory +and CoordinateOperationContext whose instances are mutable and thus can not be +used by multiple threads at once.</p> +<p>Example how to build the EPSG:4326 / WGS84 Geographic2D definition from scratch:</p> +<div class="highlight-none notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span>auto greenwich = PrimeMeridian::create( + util::PropertyMap() + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODESPACE_KEY, + metadata::Identifier::EPSG) + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODE_KEY, 8901) + .set(common::IdentifiedObject::NAME_KEY, "Greenwich"), + common::Angle(0)); +// actually predefined as PrimeMeridian::GREENWICH constant + +auto ellipsoid = Ellipsoid::createFlattenedSphere( + util::PropertyMap() + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODESPACE_KEY, metadata::Identifier::EPSG) + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODE_KEY, 7030) + .set(common::IdentifiedObject::NAME_KEY, "WGS 84"), + common::Length(6378137), + common::Scale(298.257223563)); +// actually predefined as Ellipsoid::WGS84 constant + +auto datum = GeodeticReferenceFrame::create( + util::PropertyMap() + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODESPACE_KEY, metadata::Identifier::EPSG) + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODE_KEY, 6326) + .set(common::IdentifiedObject::NAME_KEY, "World Geodetic System 1984"); + ellipsoid + util::optional<std::string>(), // anchor + greenwich); +// actually predefined as GeodeticReferenceFrame::EPSG_6326 constant + +auto geogCRS = GeographicCRS::create( + util::PropertyMap() + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODESPACE_KEY, metadata::Identifier::EPSG) + .set(metadata::Identifier::CODE_KEY, 4326) + .set(common::IdentifiedObject::NAME_KEY, "WGS 84"), + datum, + cs::EllipsoidalCS::createLatitudeLongitude(scommon::UnitOfMeasure::DEGREE)); +// actually predefined as GeographicCRS::EPSG_4326 constant +</pre></div> +</div> +</section> +<section id="algorithmic-focus"> +<h3>Algorithmic focus<a class="headerlink" href="#algorithmic-focus" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3> +<p>On the algorithmic side, a somewhat involved logic is the +CoordinateOperationFactory::createOperations() in <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/rouault/proj.4/blob/iso19111/src/coordinateoperation.cpp">coordinateoperation.cpp</a> +that takes a pair of source and target CRS and returns a set of possible +<a class="reference external" href="https://proj.org/operations/index.html">coordinate operations</a> (either single operations like a Conversion or a +Transformation, or concatenated operations). It uses the intrinsic structure +of those objects to create the coordinate operation pipeline. That is, if +going from a ProjectedCRS to another one, by doing first the inverse conversion +from the source ProjectedCRS to its base GeographicCRS, then finding the +appropriate transformation(s) from this base GeographicCRS to the base +GeographicCRS of the target CRS, and then applying the conversion from this +base GeographicCRS to the target ProjectedCRS. At each step, it queries the +database to find if one or several transformations are available. The +resulting coordinate operations are filtered, and sorted, with user provided hints:</p> +<blockquote> +<div><ul class="simple"> +<li><p>desired accuracy</p></li> +<li><p>area of use, defined as a bounding box in longitude, latitude space (its +actual CRS does not matter for the intended use)</p></li> +<li><p>if no area of use is defined, if and how the area of use of the source +and target CRS should be used.

The typical +example is when C is WGS84, but the implementation is generic and just finds +a common pivot from the database. An example of finding a non-WGS84 pivot is +when searching a transformation between EPSG:4326 and EPSG:6668 (JGD2011 - +Japanese Geodetic Datum 2011), which has no direct transformation registered +in the EPSG database .
