Re: [Geotools-devel] Introduction as new developers

Hi Jody,

I just looked over the document and it is up to date with the current
geotools referencing code (using geoapi interfaces). There are some
incomplete sections (such as Conventions and Internationalization), but
the tutorial should point people to the right direction to get started
when implementing a new map projection.

The tutorial is geared more towards new developers, instead of uses, so
I don't know if it should be part of the users guide (there is a
separate tutorial for using the geotools referencing code).

 Hi Rueben :-D
 
 I am starting to round up good examples and tutorials from our wiki - 
 if you say this is up to date can I move it over to the user guide 
 space?
 
 Cheers,
 Jody

Hello Olaf,

I have not been very involved in the geotools project over the last few
years, but I am the author of the How to add new projections tutorial.
It appears that it is mostly up to date. The tutorial, the existing
implementations and some of the linked references should be enough to
get the projections you need implemented. 

I have limited time right now, but if you have any projection
questions/problems email the developer list and Martin or I will be
happy to answer you. I try to skim the geotools email list, but feel
free to CC me with projection questions as well.

Rueben

 - show the map under different projections
 
 The last point is important regarding our potential contribution to 
 Geotools. Besides a standard rectangular cylindric projection, we will 
 need at least an AzimuthalEquidistant and a Gnomonic projection which 
 are obviously not yet supplied by Geotools (package org 
 javascript:searchRef('org').geotools 
 javascript:searchRef('geotools').referencing 
 javascript:searchRef('referencing').operation 
 javascript:searchRef('operation').projection). 
 javascript:searchRef('projection') Therefore, we will have to go and 
 add these projections following your tutorial 
 (http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOTOOLS/How+to+add+new+projections). 
 - You may also regard this email as step 0 of that tutorial ;-)
 
 Questions we may have in future will regard these projection topics, but 
 also the rendering and performance issues, which are also very important 
 for us.
 
 With best regards,
 Olaf Danne (Brockmann Consult)

Hi Justin,

Thank you for the new projection. I have hardly had any time to do any
geotools work in the last half year, but 2.2 already has two new
projections! 

I wont have much time to review this until the weekend, but here are a
few comments after looking at the code for 5 minutes (they build on
Martin's comments).

When the class inherits from MapProjection, you will no longer need the
a, Eo, No fields, since they are in MapProjection and called semiMajor,
falseEasting and falseNorthing. Also, MapProjection will get these
values from the projection parameters, so you will not want to hard code
in a value for a (though this projection is only used with one set of
parameters). I cannot remember if there is a way to set a default value
for parameters, but there used to be in geotools 2.0.

Also, in keeping with the naming conventions in the projection
subpackage, the class should probably be renamed to the full
NewZealandMapGrid.

If no one get around to making these changes by saturday, I will do
them.

Rueben

 Hi Mark,
 
 Thanks for sending the kick me in the pants email or I would have put 
 this off even longer. It was just that going through a bunch of complex 
 formulas to figure out where i was losing 0.001 degrees was not at the 
 top of my list. I am sure you can understand :)
 
 But I sucked it up and figured out what the problem was so things should 
 be fine now.
 
 Rueben, if you want to do a code review that would be great. The 
 relevant class is NZMGTransform.
 
 If someone on the udig team can build a new main jar from the latest 
 geotools trunk so Mark can try it out that would be great. I am sure 
 they will be tommorow with all the style madness going on.
