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.
2019-02-04Remove all traces of nad2bin and nad2nadKristian Evers
The source material for the default grids used by PROJ has been moved to the proj-datumgrid repository. For that reason it is no longer necessary to include the nad2bin program in the PROJ repository and source distribution. From now on the nad2bin application will be kept in the proj-datumgrid repo. Previously the null grid was generated by running nad2bin on the null.lla file. Since nad2bin is no longer available null.lla has been replaced by its binary counterpart null. This file will be distributed and installed alongside PROJ. Build scripts and documenation has been adjusted so that nad2bin is not mentioned anywhere. Additionally all references to nad2nad has been removed as well. nad2nad has not been part of the PROJ distribution for quite some time so this has been long overdue.

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This removes some questions that are no longer valid (covered elsewhere in the docs), adjusts the wording in other questions and fixes formatting and making it proper rst/sphinx syntax.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.

2018-08-21[BREAKING] Hermert: add +convention=position_vector/coordinate_frame, ↵Even Rouault
forbids +transpose (fixes #1091) As identified in #1091, Helmert implementation in PROJ 5.0 and 5.1 is confusing. It happens that by default it used the coordinate_frame convention, contrary to the position_vector convention used traditionaly for +towgs84. The documentation of Helmert was also wrongly specifying that the default convention was position_vector. This commit: - bans the confusing +transpose parameter - removes the concept of a default convention, since in practice both are equally found, and requires +convention as soon as a rotational term parameter is present. For translation only, convention is ignored and optional, as having no effect. - fixes all the identified uses of proj=helmert in code, doc and tests This is obviously a breaking change: - users will have to adapt their pipeline expressions - in particular, init files that would use helmert must be adapted However, as designed, the break will be explicit, and not silent.

2018-03-17Move application docs to top level.Kristian Evers
The 'Applications' chapter is moved to the top level of the website in order to make it easier for users to find the pages quickly instead of having to search through sub-sections in other chapters.
2018-03-17Reformat doc pages for cct, cs2cs, geod and projKristian Evers
The doc pages are reformatted to better use the features of the Sphinx documentation system. All four pages has been formatted such that they can serve as the basis for both the website and UNIX man-pages. This will make it easier to keep the man-pages aligned with the main documentation in the future.
