Class IlvEquidistantCylindricalProjection

java.lang.Object
  ilog.views.maps.projection.IlvProjection
      ilog.views.maps.projection.IlvEquidistantCylindricalProjection

All Implemented Interfaces:

IlvPersistentObject, Serializable

public class IlvEquidistantCylindricalProjection
extends IlvProjection

This class defines the Equidistant Cylindrical projection. A cylindrical projection is obtained by wrapping a large, flat plane around the globe to form a cylinder. The Equidistant Cylindrical projection simply multiplies the latitudes and longitudes by a scale factor. The latitude of the true scale can be specified.

Equidistant Cylindrical projections are also known as:

• EquiRectangular Projection
• Plate Caree

This type of projection does not support non-spherical ellipsoids and is neither Conformal nor Equal Area.
