IGeographicCoordinateSystem2 Interface

Provides access to members that control additional properties and methods for all geographic coordinate systems.

Product Availability

When To Use

Use IGeographicCoordinateSystem2 when you need to work with map projection horizons or transform between two geographic coordinate systems.

Members

	All Properties Methods Inherited Non-inherited	Description
	Abbreviation	The abbreviated name of this spatial reference component.
	Alias	The alias of this spatial reference component.
	AngularConversionFactor	A factor to convert angular units from current GCS to destination GCS.
	Changed	Notify this object that some of its parts have changed (parameter values, z unit, etc.).
