Martin Desruisseaux updated SIS-597:
------------------------------------
Issue Type: Task (was: Improvement)
> Remove usages of Projection sub-interfaces
> ------------------------------------------
>
> Key: SIS-597
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-597
> Project: Spatial Information Systems
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Referencing
> Affects Versions: 1.4
> Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux
> Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: 1.5
>
>
> Drop the implementations of {{PlanarProjection}}, {{CylindricalProjection}}
> and {{ConicProjection}} sub-interfaces. Those interfaces were never part of
> any OGC or ISO standards. They were added 20 years ago in GeoAPI at the
> request of users who wanted a classification of map projections. But many
> classifications exist (based on "conformal" or "equal area" characteristics),
> and the use of a classification based on "conic", "cylindrical", _etc._ is
> arbitrary. We are not aware of code for which those GeoAPI interfaces are
> important.
> This cleaning is part of SIS-592: upgrade to ISO 19111:2019. We try to be
> closer to the standard. Note that the removal of those interfaces do not
> impact the Apache SIS capability to perform map projections. They are just
> not classified anymore as "planar", "conic" or "cylindrical".
