Class DefaultTransformation

All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable, IdentifiedObject, CoordinateOperation, Operation, SingleOperation, Transformation

public class DefaultTransformation extends DefaultOperation implements Transformation
An operation on coordinates that usually includes a change of Datum. The parameters of a coordinate transformation are empirically derived from data containing the coordinates of a series of points in both coordinate reference systems. This computational process is usually "over-determined", allowing derivation of error (or accuracy) estimates for the transformation. Also, the stochastic nature of the parameters may result in multiple (different) versions of the same coordinate transformation.
