Method Summary

boolean	doInterpolation() Should indicate whether the transformation should use nearest neighbour (false) or some interpolator (true).
String	getDescription() Should provide a general description of the transformation.
Footprint	invTransformCoords(Footprint fpIn) Should perform an inverse transform of the location given by the footprint.
Footprint	transformCoords(Footprint fpIn) Should transform the location given by the footprint.

Method Detail

transformCoords

Footprint transformCoords(Footprint fpIn)

Should transform the location given by the footprint.

Parameters:

fpIn - Incoming footprint to transform.

Returns:

Transformed footprint.

invTransformCoords

Footprint invTransformCoords(Footprint fpIn)

Should perform an inverse transform of the location given by the footprint.

Parameters:

fpIn - Incoming footprint on which to perform the inverse transform.

Returns:

Transformed footprint.

getDescription

String getDescription()

Should provide a general description of the transformation.

Returns:

Description of the transformation.

doInterpolation

boolean doInterpolation()

Should indicate whether the transformation should use nearest neighbour (false) or some interpolator (true).

Returns:

True if transformation should perform some local interpolation.
