Field Detail

DOMAIN_OF_VALIDITY_KEY

static final String DOMAIN_OF_VALIDITY_KEY
Key for the "domainOfValidity" property to be given to the object factory createFoo(…) methods. This is used for setting the value to be returned by getDomainOfValidity().

Since:
GeoAPI 2.1
See Also:
getDomainOfValidity(), Constant Field Values

SCOPE_KEY

static final String SCOPE_KEY
Key for the "scope" property to be given to the object factory createFoo(…) methods. This is used for setting the value to be returned by getScope().

getScope(), Constant Field Values
Method Detail

getDomainOfValidity

@UML(identifier="domainOfValidity",
     obligation=OPTIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19111)
Extent getDomainOfValidity()
Area or region or timeframe in which this (coordinate) reference system is valid.

Returns:
The reference system valid domain, or null if not available.
Since:
GeoAPI 2.1

getScope

@UML(identifier="SC_CRS.scope",
     obligation=OPTIONAL,
     specification=ISO_19111)
InternationalString getScope()
Description of domain of usage, or limitations of usage, for which this (coordinate) reference system object is valid.

Returns:
The domain of usage, or null if none.
