Interface CSFactory

All Superinterfaces:

Factory

public interface CSFactory

extends Factory

Builds up complex coordinate systems from simpler objects or values. CSFactory allows applications to make coordinate systems that cannot be created by a CSAuthorityFactory. This factory is very flexible, whereas the authority factory is easier to use. So CSAuthorityFactory can be used to make "standard" coordinate systems, and CSFactory can be used to make "special" coordinate systems.
