This class is used to transform geodetic coordinates (latitude, longitude and altitude) to the 3D world position and vice versa.
Geodetics transformations are available only if GeodeticsPlugin is launched.

GeodeticsTransformer * get ( ) #
Returns a pointer to the existing geodetics instance.Return value
Pointer to the existing geodetics transformer instance. If GeodeticsPlugin is not launched, nullptr is returned.dmat4 geodeticToWorld ( const dvec3 & geo_coords ) #
Transforms geodetic coordinates of the selected coordinate system to the 3D world coordinates: position and rotation (the Y axis is directed to the North, the X axis — to the East, and the Z axis — upwards).Arguments
- const dvec3 & geo_coords - Geodetic coordinates (lat,lon,alt).
Return value
World position and orientation.dvec3 geodeticToWorldPosition ( const dvec3 & geo_coords ) #
Transforms geodetic coordinates of the selected coordinate system to the 3D world coordinates (position).Arguments
- const dvec3 & geo_coords - Geodetic coordinates (lat,lon,alt).
Return value
World position.dvec3 worldToGeodetic ( const dvec3 & world_pos ) #
Transforms the 3D world coordinates to geodetic coordinates of the selected coordinate system.Arguments
- const dvec3 & world_pos - World position.
Return value
Geodetic coordinates (lat,lon,alt).int setProjectionWkt ( const char * projection_cs_wkt_string, const dvec3 & world_origin_geo_coords, const char * geodetic_cs_string, int geodetic_cs_is_well_known ) #
Sets a projection by WKT description, which is used as the world coordinate projection, and defines a geodetic coordinate system.Arguments
- const char * projection_cs_wkt_string - Description of the projection in the OpenGIS WKT format.
- const dvec3 & world_origin_geo_coords - World origin in geodetic coordinates (lat,lon,alt).
- const char * geodetic_cs_string - Description of a geodetic coordinate system.
- int geodetic_cs_is_well_known - 1 or 0.
If set to 1, a well-known coordinate system description is used as the geodetic_cs_string argument.
The following well-known text values are supported:
- WGS84 — same as EPSG:4326, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- WGS72 — same as EPSG:4322, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- NAD27 — same as EPSG:4267, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- NAD83 — same as EPSG:4269, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- EPSG:n — n is a GCS code from the horizontal coordinate system table.
If set to 0, a detailed WKT description is used.
Return value
1 on success; otherwise, 0.int setProjectionEpsg ( int projection_cs_epsg_code, const dvec3 & world_origin_geo_coords, const char * geodetic_cs_string, int geodetic_cs_is_well_known ) #
Sets a projection by EPSG code, which is used as the world coordinate projection, and defines a geodetic coordinate system.Arguments
- int projection_cs_epsg_code - EPSG code of the projection.
- const dvec3 & world_origin_geo_coords - World origin in geodetic coordinates (lat,lon,alt).
- const char * geodetic_cs_string - Description of a geodetic coordinate system.
- int geodetic_cs_is_well_known - 1 or 0.
If set to 1, a well-known coordinate system description is used as the geodetic_cs_string argument.
The following well-known text values are supported:
- WGS84 — same as EPSG:4326, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- WGS72 — same as EPSG:4322, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- NAD27 — same as EPSG:4267, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- NAD83 — same as EPSG:4269, but has no dependence on EPSG data files.
- EPSG:n — n is a GCS code from the horizontal coordinate system table.
If set to 0, a detailed WKT description is used.
Return value
1 on success; otherwise, 0.Last update:
