Constructor Detail

DefaultTemporalDatum

public DefaultTemporalDatum(TemporalDatum datum)

Constructs a new datum with the same values than the specified one. This copy constructor provides a way to wrap an arbitrary implementation into a Geotools one or a user-defined one (as a subclass), usually in order to leverage some implementation-specific API. This constructor performs a shallow copy, i.e. the properties are not cloned.

Since:

2.2

DefaultTemporalDatum

public DefaultTemporalDatum(String name,
                            Date origin)

Constructs a temporal datum from a name.

Parameters:

name - The datum name.

origin - The date and time origin of this temporal datum.

DefaultTemporalDatum

public DefaultTemporalDatum(Map<String,?> properties,
                            Date origin)

Constructs a temporal datum from a set of properties. The properties map is given unchanged to the super-class constructor.

Parameters:

properties - Set of properties. Should contains at least "name".

origin - The date and time origin of this temporal datum.

Method Detail

getOrigin

public Date getOrigin()

The date and time origin of this temporal datum.

Specified by:

getOrigin in interface TemporalDatum

Returns:

The date and time origin of this temporal datum.

getAnchorPoint

public InternationalString getAnchorPoint()

Description of the point or points used to anchor the datum to the Earth.

Specified by:

getAnchorPoint in interface Datum

Specified by:

getAnchorPoint in interface TemporalDatum

Overrides:

getAnchorPoint in class AbstractDatum

Returns:

A description of the anchor point, or null if none.

getRealizationEpoch

public Date getRealizationEpoch()

The time after which this datum definition is valid.

Specified by:

getRealizationEpoch in interface Datum

Specified by:

getRealizationEpoch in interface TemporalDatum

Overrides:

getRealizationEpoch in class AbstractDatum

Returns:

The datum realization epoch, or null if not available.

equals

public boolean equals(AbstractIdentifiedObject object,
                      boolean compareMetadata)

Compare this temporal datum with the specified object for equality.

Overrides:

equals in class AbstractDatum

Parameters:

object - The object to compare to this.

compareMetadata - true for performing a strict comparaison, or false for comparing only properties relevant to transformations.

Returns:

true if both objects are equal.

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Returns a hash value for this temporal datum. Name, remarks and the like are not taken in account. In other words, two temporal datums will return the same hash value if they are equal in the sense of equals(AbstractIdentifiedObject, false).

Overrides:

hashCode in class AbstractIdentifiedObject

Returns:

The hash code value. This value doesn't need to be the same in past or future versions of this class.
