Assembly:  ESRI.ArcGISExplorer (in ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.dll) Version: 2.0.0.1500 (2.0.0.1500)

Syntax

C#
public CoordinateSystem BaseGeographicCoordinateSystem { get; }
Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public ReadOnly Property BaseGeographicCoordinateSystem As CoordinateSystem

Field Value

The geographic coordinate system upon which this projected coordinate system is based; if this CoordinateSystem is geographic, then this property returns nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic).

Remarks

Projected coordinate systems use an underlying geographic coordinate system in order to map coordinates to their location on the earth. This property returns the underlying geographic coordinate system for a projected coordinate system, or returns nullNothingnullptra null reference (Nothing in Visual Basic) if the coordinate system is geographic.
