public class CoordinateFormat extends CompoundFormat<org.opengis.geometry.DirectPosition>
Formats spatiotemporal coordinates using number, angle and date formats inferred from the coordinate system. The format for each coordinate is inferred from the coordinate system units using the following rules:
  • Coordinate values in angular units are formatted as angles using AngleFormat.
  • Coordinate values in temporal units are formatted as dates using DateFormat.
  • Other values are formatted as numbers using NumberFormat followed by the unit symbol formatted by UnitFormat.
The format can be controlled by invoking the applyPattern(Class, String) public method, or by overriding the createFormat(Class) protected method.

Coordinate reference system

CoordinateFormat uses the DirectPosition.getCoordinateReferenceSystem() value for determining how to format each coordinate value. If the position does not specify a coordinate reference system, then the default CRS is assumed. If no default CRS has been specified, then all coordinates are formatted as decimal numbers.

CoordinateFormat does not transform the given coordinates in a unique CRS. If the coordinates need to be formatted in a specific CRS, then the caller should transform the position before to format it.

      public org.opengis.referencing.crs.CoordinateReferenceSystem getDefaultCRS()
      Returns the coordinate reference system to use if no CRS is explicitly associated to a given DirectPosition. This CRS determines the type of format to use for each coordinate (number, angle or date) and the number of fraction digits to use for achieving a specified precision on ground.

      Sets the coordinate reference system to use if no CRS is explicitly associated to a given DirectPosition. This CRS is only a default; positions given in another CRS are not automatically transformed to that CRS before formatting.
      Parameters:
      crs - the default coordinate reference system, or null if none.

    • getPrecisions

      public double[] getPrecisions()
      Returns the precisions at which coordinate values are formatted in each dimension. For example if coordinates in dimension i are formatted with two fraction digits, then the precision reported in precisions[i] will be 0.01. If the precision cannot be determined for some dimensions, the corresponding values in the returned array will be 0.

      The values returned by this method are not necessarily equal to the values specified in the last call to setPrecisions(double...). For example if a precision of 0.03 has been requested for a dimension whose coordinates are formatted as decimal numbers, then the actual precision returned by this method for that dimension will be 0.01.

      Returns:
      precision of coordinate values in each dimension (may contain 0 values for unknown precisions).
      Since:
      1.1
      See Also:

    • setPrecisions

      public void setPrecisions(double... precisions)
      Sets the desired precisions at which to format coordinate values in each dimension. For example if precisions[i] is 0.05, then coordinates in dimension i will be shown with two fraction digits when formatted as decimal numbers, or with "D°MM" pattern when formatted as angles.

      This precision does not have a direct relationship to the precision on the ground. For example, a precision of 0.01 could be one centimeter or 10 meters, depending if the units of measurement in that dimension is meter or kilometer. For a precision related to the ground, use setGroundPrecision(Quantity) instead.

      If any value in the given array is 0 or Double.NaN, then there is a choice: if setGroundPrecision(Quantity) has been invoked, the precision specified to that method will apply (if possible). Otherwise an implementation-specific default precision is used. A typical use case is to use setGroundPrecision(Quantity) for specifying an horizontal precision in "real world" units and to use this setPrecisions(double...) method for adjusting the precision of the vertical axis only.

      Parameters:
      precisions - desired precision at which to format coordinate values in each dimension (may have 0 or Double.NaN values for unspecified precisions in some of those dimensions), or null for restoring the default values.
      Since:
      1.1
      See Also:

    • setGroundPrecision

      public void setGroundPrecision(javax.measure.Quantity<?> precision)
      Adjusts the number of fraction digits to show in coordinates for achieving the given precision. The NumberFormat and AngleFormat are configured for coordinates expressed in the coordinate reference system of the position to format. The given resolution will be converted to the units used by coordinate system axes. For example if a 10 metres resolution is specified but the default CRS axes use kilometres, then this method converts the resolution to 0.01 kilometre and uses that value for inferring that coordinates should be formatted with 2 fraction digits. If the resolution is specified in an angular units such as degrees, this method uses the ellipsoid authalic radius for computing an equivalent resolution in linear units. For example if the ellipsoid of default CRS is WGS84, then this method considers a resolution of 1 second of angle as equivalent to a resolution of about 31 meters. Conversions work also in the opposite direction (from linear to angular units) and are also used for choosing which angle fields (degrees, minutes or seconds) to show.

      If both setPrecisions(double...) and setGroundPrecision(Quantity) are used, then the values specified with setPrecisions(…) have precedence and this ground precision is used only as a fallback. A typical use case is to specify the ground precision for horizontal dimensions, then to specify a different precision dz for the vertical axis only with setPrecisions(NaN, NaN, dz).

      Parameters:
      precision - the desired precision together with its linear or angular unit.

      Parameters:
      accuracy - the accuracy to append after the coordinate values, or null if none.

      See Also:

    • applyPattern

      public boolean applyPattern(Class<?> valueType, String pattern)
      Sets the pattern for number, angle or date fields. The pattern syntax depends on the valueType argument:
      • If valueType is Number.class, then the pattern syntax shall be as described in the DecimalFormat class. This pattern may be used for any coordinate to be formatted as plain number, for example in Cartesian coordinate system.
      • If valueType is Angle.class, then the pattern syntax shall be as described in the AngleFormat class. This pattern may be used for any coordinate to be formatted as latitude or longitude, for example in ellipsoidal coordinate system.
      • If valueType is Date.class, then the pattern syntax shall be as described in the SimpleDateFormat class. This pattern may be used for any coordinate to be formatted as date and time, for example in time coordinate system.
      Parameters:
      valueType - the base type of coordinate values to parse and format: Number.class, Angle.class or Date.class.
      pattern - the pattern as specified in DecimalFormat, AngleFormat or SimpleDateFormat javadoc.
      Returns:
      true if the pattern has been applied, or false if valueType does not specify a known type or if the format associated to that type does not support patterns.
      Throws:
      IllegalArgumentException - if the given pattern is invalid.

    • getValueType

      DirectPosition.class.

    • createFormat

      protected Format createFormat(Class<?> valueType)
      Creates a new format to use for parsing and formatting values of the given type. This method is invoked by CompoundFormat.getFormat(Class) the first time that a format is needed for the given type.

      See super-class for a description of recognized types. This method override uses the short date pattern instead of the (longer) default one.

      Overrides:
      createFormat in class CompoundFormat<org.opengis.geometry.DirectPosition>
      Parameters:
      valueType - the base type of values to parse or format.

      the format to use for parsing of formatting values of the given type, or null if none.

    • format

      public String format(org.opengis.geometry.DirectPosition position)
      Formats the given coordinate. The type of each coordinate value (number, angle or date) is determined by the CRS of the given position if such CRS is defined, or from the default CRS otherwise.
      Parameters:
      position - the coordinate to format.
      Returns:
      the formatted position.

    • format

      public void format(org.opengis.geometry.DirectPosition position, Appendable toAppendTo) throws IOException

    • parse

      public org.opengis.geometry.DirectPosition parse(CharSequence text, ParsePosition pos) throws ParseException
      Parses a coordinate from the given character sequence. This method presumes that the coordinate reference system is the default CRS. The parsing begins at the index given by the pos argument. If parsing succeeds, then the pos index is updated to the index after the last coordinate value and the parsed coordinate is returned. Otherwise (if parsing fails), the pos index is left unchanged, the pos error index is set to the index of the first unparsable character and an exception is thrown with a similar error index.
      Specified by:
      parse in class CompoundFormat<org.opengis.geometry.DirectPosition>
      Parameters:
      text - the character sequence for the coordinate to parse.
      pos - the index where to start the parsing.
      Returns:
      the parsed coordinate (never null).
      Throws:
      ParseException - if an error occurred while parsing the coordinate.
