Detailed Description

Contains information about the context in which a coordinate transform is executed.

The context stores various information regarding which coordinate operations should be used when transforming points from a source to destination coordinate reference system.

Note
QgsCoordinateTransformContext objects are thread safe for read and write.
QgsCoordinateTransformContext objects are implicitly shared.

◆ addCoordinateOperation()

bool QgsCoordinateTransformContext::addCoordinateOperation ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem sourceCrs,
const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem destinationCrs,
const QString &  coordinateOperationProjString,
bool  allowFallback = true 
)

Adds a new coordinateOperationProjString to use when projecting coordinates from the specified sourceCrs to the specified destinationCrs.

coordinateOperationProjString should be set to a valid Proj coordinate operation string. If coordinateOperationProjString is empty, then the default Proj operation will be used when transforming between the coordinate reference systems.

If allowFallback is true (since QGIS 3.12), then "ballpark" fallback transformations will be used in the case that the specified coordinate operation fails (such as when coordinates from outside a required grid shift file are transformed). See QgsCoordinateTransform::fallbackOperationOccurred() for further details. Note that if an existing sourceCrs and destinationCrs pair are added with a different allowFallback value, that value will replace the existing one (i.e. each combination of sourceCrs and destinationCrs must be unique).

Warning
coordinateOperationProjString MUST be a proj string which has been normalized for visualization, and must be constructed so that coordinates are always input and output with x/y coordinate ordering. (Proj strings output by utilities such as projinfo will NOT automatically normalize the axis order!).

Returns true if the new coordinate operation was added successfully.

coordinateOperations()
removeCoordinateOperation()
Note
Requires Proj 6.0 or later. Builds based on earlier Proj versions will ignore this setting, and the deprecated addSourceDestinationDatumTransform() method must be used instead.
Since
QGIS 3.8

Definition at line 104 of file qgscoordinatetransformcontext.cpp.

◆ addSourceDestinationDatumTransform()

bool QgsCoordinateTransformContext::addSourceDestinationDatumTransform ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem sourceCrs,
const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem destinationCrs,
int  sourceTransformId,
int  destinationTransformId 
)

Adds a new sourceTransform and destinationTransform to use when projecting coordinates from the specified sourceCrs to the specified destinationCrs.

If either sourceTransformId or destinationTransformId is -1, then no datum transform is required for transformations for that source or destination.

Returns true if the new transform pair was added successfully.

sourceDestinationDatumTransforms()
removeSourceDestinationDatumTransform()
Deprecated:
Has no effect on builds based on Proj 6.0 or later, use addCoordinateOperation() instead.

Definition at line 95 of file qgscoordinatetransformcontext.cpp.

◆ allowFallbackTransform()

bool QgsCoordinateTransformContext::allowFallbackTransform ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem source,
const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem destination 
) const

Returns true if approximate "ballpark" transforms may be used when transforming between a source and destination CRS pair, in the case that the preferred coordinate operation fails (such as when coordinates from outside a required grid shift file are transformed).

See QgsCoordinateTransform::fallbackOperationOccurred() for further details.

Since
QGIS 3.12

Definition at line 160 of file qgscoordinatetransformcontext.cpp.

◆ calculateCoordinateOperation()

QString QgsCoordinateTransformContext::calculateCoordinateOperation ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem source,
const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem destination 
) const

Returns the Proj coordinate operation string to use when transforming from the specified source CRS to destination CRS.

Returns an empty string if no specific coordinate operation is set for the source to destination pair, in which case the default Proj coordinate operation should be used.

Note
source and destination are reversible.
Requires Proj 6.0 or later. Builds based on earlier Proj versions will always return an empty string, and the deprecated calculateDatumTransforms() method should be used instead.
Warning
Always check the result of mustReverseCoordinateOperation() in order to determine if the proj coordinate operation string returned by this method corresponds to the reverse operation, and must be manually flipped when calculating coordinate transforms.

QGIS 3.8

Definition at line 141 of file qgscoordinatetransformcontext.cpp.

◆ calculateDatumTransforms()

QgsDatumTransform::TransformPair QgsCoordinateTransformContext::calculateDatumTransforms ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem source,
const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem destination 
) const

Returns the pair of source and destination datum transforms to use for a transform from the specified source CRS to destination CRS.

Returns an ID of -1 if a datum transform should not be used for the source or destination.

Note
source and destination are reversible.
Deprecated:
Has no effect on builds based on Proj 6.0 or later. Use calculateCoordinateOperation() instead.

Definition at line 134 of file qgscoordinatetransformcontext.cpp.

◆ clear()

void QgsCoordinateTransformContext::clear ( )

Clears all stored transform information from the context.

Definition at line 68 of file qgscoordinatetransformcontext.cpp.

◆ coordinateOperations()

QMap< QPair< QString, QString >, QString > QgsCoordinateTransformContext::coordinateOperations ( ) const

Returns the stored mapping for source to destination CRS pairs to associated coordinate operation to use (as a proj string).

The map keys will be QgsCoordinateReferenceSystems::authid()s.

Warning
This method should not be used to calculate the corresponding coordinate operation to use for a coordinate transform. Instead, always use calculateCoordinateOperation() to determine this.

addCoordinateOperation()
Note
Requires Proj 6.0 or later. Builds based on earlier Proj versions will always return an empty list, and the deprecated sourceDestinationDatumTransforms() method must be used instead.

bool QgsCoordinateTransformContext::hasTransform ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem source,

Note
source and destination are reversible.

◆ mustReverseCoordinateOperation()

bool QgsCoordinateTransformContext::mustReverseCoordinateOperation ( const QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem source,

const QgsReadWriteContext context,
QStringList &  missingTransforms 
)
