             Summary: Support coordinate transformations between ParametricCRS 
and VerticalCRS
                 Key: SIS-340
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-340
             Project: Spatial Information Systems
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Referencing
    Affects Versions: 0.7
            Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux


{{ParametricCRS}} are used for elevations measured by a pressure, while 
{{VerticalCRS}} are used for elevations measured in metres (or other linear 
units). There is currently no mechanism for performing coordinate 
transformations between those two kind of measurements. We need to implement a 
mechanism which allow users to plug-in their transformations. This will require 
user-provided data, for example pressure at ground level, that may change at 
every instant. We may consider leveraging the "dynamic datum" mechanism under 
discussion (as of November 2016) for ISO 19111 revision.
