Gets the second of a pair of CoordinateSystems to which the transformation applies.

Namespace: ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.Geometry
Assembly: ESRI.ArcGISExplorer (in ESRI.ArcGISExplorer.dll) Version: 2.0.0.900 (2.0.0.900)

Syntax

C#
public CoordinateSystem CoordinateSystem2 { get; }

Visual Basic (Declaration)
Public ReadOnly Property CoordinateSystem2 As CoordinateSystem

Field Value

A reference to the second coordinate system.

Remarks

A GeographicTransformation object represents a specific function that applies to transformations between two specific CoordinateSystems. The transformation is applicable when projecting either from CoordinateSystem1 to CoordinateSystem2, or vice-versa.

Examples

The code below shows how you can create a GeographicTransformation directly if you know the unique identifier. After reporting a few properties, the transformation is then added to the collection held by the Map object, so that it can be used in on-the-fly projections.

CopyC#

// Create a GeographicTransformation with a known identifier - the code below will
// create the transformation 1139, suitable for locations in Finland and Norway.
GeographicTransformation ed1950ToWGS84 = new GeographicTransformation(1139);

System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("The GeographicTransformation:");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ed1950ToWGS84.Name);
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("Converts between the coordinate systems:");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ed1950ToWGS84.CoordinateSystem1.Name);
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine("and");
System.Diagnostics.Debug.WriteLine(ed1950ToWGS84.CoordinateSystem2.Name);

// Add the transformation to the Map for use in on-the-fly transformations.
// The variable 'currentMap' should point to the current MapDisplay object. 
      // We add this transformation to the 2D transformations collection.
currentDisplay.GeographicTransformations2D.Add(ed1950ToWGS84);
