Interface Matrix

All Superinterfaces:
Cloneable

@UML(identifier="PT_Matrix",
     specification=OGC_01009)
public interface Matrix
extends Cloneable

A two dimensional array of numbers. Row and column numbering begins with zero. The API for this interface matches closely the API in various matrix implementations available in Java3D, which should enable straightforward implementations. Java3D provides matrix for the general case and optimized versions for 3×3 and 4×4 cases, which are quite common in a transformation package.

Since:
GeoAPI 1.0
Version:
Implementation specification 1.0

Method Detail

getNumRow

@Extension
int getNumRow()
Returns the number of rows in this matrix.

Returns:
The number of rows in this matrix.

getNumCol

@Extension
int getNumCol()

getElement

@Extension
double getElement(int row,
                            int column)
