QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem ( QString theDefinition )

explicit

Constructs a CRS object from a string definition as defined in the createFromString member function (by default a WKT definition).

Parameters

theDefinition A String containing a coordinate reference system definition.

Definition at line 63 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem	(	const long	theId,
		CrsType	theType = `PostgisCrsId`
	)

Use this constructor when you want to create a CRS object using a postgis SRID, an EpsgCrsId id or a QGIS CRS_ID.

Note: We encourage you to use EpsgCrsId, Wkt or Proj4 to describe CRS's in your code wherever possible. QGSI CRS_IDs are not guaranteed to be permanent / involatile.

Parameters

Sets this CRS to the given OGC WMS-format Coordinate Reference Systems.

Return values

false if not given an valid label

Definition at line 210 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

bool QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createFromProj4 ( const QString & theProjString )

Set up this srs by passing it a proj4 style formatted string. The string will be parsed and the projection and ellipsoid members set and the remainder of the proj4 string will be stored in the parameters member. The reason for this is so that we can easily present the user with 'natural language' representation of the projection and ellipsoid by looking them up in the srs.bs sqlite database. Also having the ellipse and proj elements stripped out is helpful to speed up globbing queries (see below).

We try to match the proj string to and srsid using the following logic:

perform a whole text search on srs name (if not null). The srs name will have been set if this method has been delegated to from createFromWkt.
if the above does not match perform a whole text search on proj4 string (if not null)
if none of the above match convert the proj4 string to an OGR CRS then check if its a geocs or a proj cs (using ogr isGeographic) then sequentially walk through the database (first users qgis.db srs tbl then system srs.db tbl), converting each entry into an ogr srs and using isSame or isSameGeocs (essentially calling the == overloaded operator). We'll try to be smart about this and first parse out the proj and ellpse strings and only check for a match in entities that have the same ellps and proj entries so that it doesn't munch yer cpu so much.

Parameters

theProjString A proj4 format string

Returns: bool TRUE if success else false

Definition at line 511 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

bool QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createFromSrid ( const long theSrid )

Set up this srs by fetching the appropriate information from the sqlite backend. First the system level read only srs.db will be checked and then the users ~/.qgis/qgis.db database will be checked for a match.

Note: Any members will be overwritten during this process.

Parameters

theSrid The postgis SRID for the desired spatial reference system.

Definition at line 308 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

bool QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createFromSrsId ( const long theSrsId )

Set up this srs by fetching the appropriate information from the sqlite backend. If the srsid is < 100000, only the system srs.db will be checked. If the srsid > 100000 the srs will be retrieved from the ~/.qgis/qgis.db

Note: Any members will be overwritten during this process.

Parameters

theSrsId The QGIS SrsId for the desired spatial reference system.

Returns: bool TRUE if success else false

Definition at line 313 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

bool QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createFromString ( const QString & theDefinition )

Set up this srs from a string definition, by default a WKT definition. Otherwise the string defines a authority, followed by a colon, followed by the definition. The authority can be one of "epsg", "postgis", "internal" for integer definitions, and "wkt" or "proj4" for string definitions. The implementation of each authority uses the corresponding createFrom... function.

Parameters

theDefinition A String containing a coordinate reference system definition.

Definition at line 116 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

bool QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createFromUserInput ( const QString & theDefinition )

Set up this srs from a various text formats.

  Valid formats: WKT string, "EPSG:n", "EPSGA:n", "AUTO:proj_id,unit_id,lon0,lat0",
  "urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::n", PROJ.4 string, filename (with WKT, XML or PROJ.4 string),
  well known name (such as NAD27, NAD83, WGS84 or WGS72),
  ESRI::[WKT string] (directly or in a file), "IGNF:xxx"

  For more details on supported formats see OGRSpatialReference::SetFromUserInput()
  ( http://www.gdal.org/ogr/classOGRSpatialReference.html#aec3c6a49533fe457ddc763d699ff8796 )
  @note this function generates a WKT string using OSRSetFromUserInput() and
  passes it to createFromWkt() function.
  @param theDefinition A String containing a coordinate reference system definition.

Definition at line 160 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

bool QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::createFromWkt ( const QString & theWkt )

Set up this srs using a Wkt spatial ref sys definition. The wkt will be converted to a proj4 string using OGR helper functions. After this the srs databasses will be searched for matches. First the system level read only srs.db will be checked and then the users ~/.qgis/qgis.db database will be checked for a match.

Note: Any members will be overwritten during this process.; SRID and EpsgCrsId may be blank if no match can be found on srs db.

Parameters

theWkt The Wkt for the desired spatial reference system.

Returns: bool TRUE if success else false

Definition at line 430 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

CUSTOM_CRS_VALIDATION QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::customSrsValidation ( )

static

Gets custom function.

Note: not available in python bindings

Definition at line 1421 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

QString QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::description ( ) const

Get the Description

Returns: QString the Description A textual description of the srs.

Note: A zero length string will be returned if the description is uninitialised

Definition at line 838 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

QString QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::ellipsoidAcronym ( ) const

Get the Ellipsoid Acronym

Returns: QString theEllipsoidAcronym The official proj4 acronym for the ellipoid

Note: A zero length string will be returned if the ellipsoidAcronym is uninitialised

Definition at line 862 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

long QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::findMatchingProj ( )

This is a globbing function to try to find a record in the database that matches a CRS defined only by a proj4string. The goal is to learn what the tbl_srs.srs_id value is for the CRS. Internally the source CRS is converted to an OGR srs object using the proj4string call and then every record in the database that matches projection and ellipsoid will be converted to an OGR srs in turn and compared to the source CRS. There are some gotchas with using ogr isSame() srs comparison, but its more effective than using straight string comparison of proj4params.

Note: The ellipsoid and projection acronyms must be set as well as the proj4string!

Returns: long the SrsId of the matched CRS

Definition at line 1028 of file qgscoordinatereferencesystem.cpp.

QString QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem::geographicCRSAuthId ( ) const

Returns auth id of related geographic CRS.

By hell or high water this method will do its best to make sure that this CRS is valid - even if that involves resorting to a hard coded default of geocs:wgs84.
