2020-01-22Merge RFC4 (#1865)Even Rouault
This commit is the result of the squashing of rfc4_dev branch in a single commit. It implements mostly RFC 4 related work. * Grid handling: - remove obsolete and presumably unfinished implementation of grid catalog functionality - all grid functionality is in grids.cpp/.hpp - vertical and horizontal grid shift: rework to no longer load whole grid into memory - remove hgrids and vgrids member from PJ structure, and store them in hgridshift/vgridshift/deformation structures - build systems: add optional libtiff dependency. Must be explicitly disabled if not desired - add support for horizontal and vertical grids in GeoTIFF, if libtiff is available - add GenericShiftGridSet and GenericShiftGrid classes, relying on TIFF grids, that can be used for generic purpose grid-based adjustment - add a +proj=xyzgridshift method to perform geocentric translation by grid. Used for French NTF to RGF93 transformation using gr3df97a.tif grid - deformation: add support for +grids= for GeoTIFF grids - horizontal grid shift: fix failures on points slightly outside a subgrid (fixes #209) * File management: - add a filemanager.cpp/.hpp to deal with file related work - test for legacy proj_api.h fileapi - proj.h: add proj_context_set_fileapi() and proj_context_set_sqlite3_vfs_name() (fixes #866) - add capability to read resource files from the user writable directory * Network access: - build systems: add optional curl dependency - add a curl-based default implementation for network related functionality - proj.h: add C API to control network functionality, and optionaly provide network callbacks - add data/proj.ini with default settings - add a SQLite3 local cache of downloaded chunks - add proj_is_download_needed() and proj_download_file() * Use Win32 Unicode APIs and expect all strings to be UTF-8 (fixes #1765) For backward compatibility, if PROJ_LIB content is found to be not UTF-8 or pointing to a non existing directory, then an attempt at interpretating it in the ANSI page encoding is done. proj_context_set_search_paths() now assumes strings to be in UTF-8, and functions returning paths will also return values in UTF-8.
2020-01-13Remove -ld option from proj and cs2csKristian Evers
It promotes use of deprecated paramters +datum and +towgs84 which we don't want to encourage. Closes #1308

2019-02-14deformation: Replace +t_obs with +dtKristian Evers
The +t_obs parameter was confusing for users since it effectively overwrote the observation time in input coordinates. To make it more clear what is the operation is doing, users are now required to directly specify the time span for which they wish to apply a given deformation. The parameter +dt has been added for that purpose. The new parameter is mutually exclusive with +t_epoch. +dt is used when deformation for a set amount of time is needed and +t_epoch is used (in conjunction with the observation time of the input coordinate) when deformation from a specific epoch to the observation time is needed.

2019-02-14Reverse direction of deformation operations/transformations/deformationKristian Evers
Changed the direction of dt-calculation to follow the same convention as helmert. Changed from dt = t_c - t_obs to dt = t_obs - t_c, which effectively reverses the direction of the operation. Existing projstrings using deformation can simply reverse the direction of the operation to achieve the same results as before this commit.

2018-09-20Clean up FAQKristian Evers
This removes some questions that are no longer valid (covered elsewhere in the docs), adjusts the wording in other questions and fixes formatting and making it proper rst/sphinx syntax. With this, #1070 is almost fixed.
