public static Envelope transform(Envelope envelope,
                                 MathTransform transform)
                          throws TransformException
```
    Transforms the envelope using the specified math transform. Note that this method can not handle the case where the envelope contains the North or South pole, or when it cross the ±180ï¿½ longitude, because math transforms do not carry suffisient informations. For a more robust envelope transformation, use ReferencedEnvelope.transform(CoordinateReferenceSystem, boolean) instead.
    
    Parameters:
    
    envelope - The envelope to transform.
    
    transform - The transform to use.
    
    Returns:
    
    The transformed Envelope
    
    Throws:
    
    TransformException - if at least one coordinate can't be transformed.

                          throws TransformException
```
    Transforms the densified envelope using the specified math transform. The envelope is densified (extra points put around the outside edge) to provide a better new envelope for high deformed situations.
    If an optional target envelope is provided, this envelope will be expanded with the transformation result. It will not be nullified before the expansion.
    Note that this method can not handle the case where the envelope contains the North or South pole, or when it cross the ±180ï¿½ longitude, because math transforms do not carry suffisient informations. For a more robust envelope transformation, use ReferencedEnvelope.transform(CoordinateReferenceSystem, boolean, int) instead.
    
    Parameters:
    
    sourceEnvelope - The envelope to transform.
    
    targetEnvelope - An envelope to expand with the transformation result, or null for returning an new envelope.
    
    transform - The transform to use.
    
    npoints - Densification of each side of the rectangle.
    
    Returns:
    
    targetEnvelope if it was non-null, or a new envelope otherwise. In all case, the returned envelope fully contains the transformed envelope.
    
    Throws:
    
    TransformException - if a coordinate can't be transformed.

```
    Transforms the envelope from its current crs to DefaultGeographicCRS.WGS84. If the specified envelope is already in WGS84, then it is returned unchanged.
    The method CRS.equalsIgnoreMetadata(Object, Object) is used to compare the numeric values and axis order (so CRS.decode("CRS.84") or CRS.decode("4326",true) provide an appropriate match).
    
    Parameters:
    
    envelope - The envelope to transform.
    
    crs - The CRS the envelope is currently in.
    
    Returns:

    Parameters:
    
    envelope - The envelope to transform

                  throws TransformException
```
    Like a transform but eXtreme!
    Transforms an array of coordinates using the provided math transform. Each coordinate is transformed separately. In case of a transform exception then the new value of the coordinate is the last coordinate correctly transformed.
    
    Parameters:
    
    transform - The math transform to apply.
    
    src - The source coordinates.
    
    dest - The destination array for transformed coordinates.

                                  throws TransformException
```
    Computes the orthodromic distance between two points. This method:
    1. Transforms both points to geographic coordinates (latitude,longitude).
    2. Computes the orthodromic distance between the two points using ellipsoidal calculations.
    The real work is performed by GeodeticCalculator. This convenience method simply manages a pool of pre-defined geodetic calculators for the given coordinate reference system in order to avoid repetitive object creation. If a large amount of orthodromic distances need to be computed, direct use of GeodeticCalculator provides better performance than this convenience method.
    Parameters:
    
    p1 - First point
    
    p2 - Second point
    
    crs - Reference system the two points are in.
    
    Returns:
    
    Orthodromic distance between the two points, in meters.

```
    Copies the ordinates values from the specified JTS coordinates to the specified array. The destination array can have any length. Only the relevant field of the source coordinate will be copied. If the array length is greater than 3, then all extra dimensions will be set to NaN.

    point - The source coordinate.
    
    ordinates - The destination array.

  - smooth
```
public static Geometry smooth(Geometry geom,
                              double fit)
```
    Creates a smoothed copy of the input Geometry. This is only useful for polygonal and lineal geometries. Point objects will be returned unchanged. The smoothing algorithm inserts new vertices which are positioned using Bezier splines. All vertices of the input Geometry will be present in the output Geometry.
    The fit parameter controls how tightly the smoothed lines conform to the input line segments, with a value of 1 being tightest and 0 being loosest. Values outside this range will be adjusted up or down as required.
    The input Geometry can be a simple type (e.g. LineString, Polygon), a multi-type (e.g. MultiLineString, MultiPolygon) or a GeometryCollection. The returned object will be of the same type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    geom - the input geometry
    
    fit - tightness of fit from 0 (loose) to 1 (tight)
    
    Returns:
    
    a new Geometry object of the same class as geom
    
    Throws:
    
    IllegalArgumentException - if geom is null
  - smooth

```
    Creates a CoordinateSequence using the provided factory confirming the provided size and dimension are respected.
    If the requested dimension is larger than the CoordinateSequence implementation can provide, then a sequence of maximum possible dimension should be created. An error should not be thrown.
    This method is functionally identical to calling csFactory.create(size,dim) - it contains additional logic to work around a limitation on the commonly used CoordinateArraySequenceFactory.
    
    Parameters:
    
    size - the number of coordinates in the sequence
    
    dimension - the dimension of the coordinates in the sequence
