public final class PeGeographicCS
extends PeCoordinateSystem

A geographic coordinate system is a three-dimensional reference system that locates points on the Earth's surface. The unit of measure is usually decimal degrees. A point has two coordinate values: latitude and longitude. Latitude and longitude measure angles.

A geographic coordinate system has the following components:

Angular units: The unit of measure on the spherical reference system.

Spheroid: The reference spheroid for the coordinate transformation.

Datum: Defines the relationship of the reference spheroid to the Earth's surface.

Prime meridian: The longitude origin of the spherical reference system.
