Field Detail

_accuracy

protected static double _accuracy

getInstance

public static CoordinateSystemI getInstance()

getAccuracy

public double getAccuracy()

Returns the absolute accuracy required in this coordinate system. The accuracy is used globally for equality tests and to terminate numerical methods. The default absolute accuracy for this coordinate system is '1.0E-6'.

Specified by:

getAccuracy in interface CoordinateSystemI

setAccuracy

public static void setAccuracy(double accuracy)

Sets the absolute accuracy required in this coordinate system. The accuracy is used globally for equality tests and to terminate numerical methods. The default absolute accuracy for this coordinate system is '1.0E-6'.

equals

public boolean equals(double a,
                      double b)

Returns true if the arguments are equal to with in the accuracy of the coordinate system.

Specified by:

equals in interface CoordinateSystemI

toString
