Uses of VerticalDatumType in org.opengis.referencing.datum
 

Fields in org.opengis.referencing.datum declared as VerticalDatumType
static VerticalDatumType VerticalDatumType.BAROMETRIC
          Atmospheric pressure is the basis for the definition of the origin of the associated vertical coordinate system axis.
static VerticalDatumType VerticalDatumType.DEPTH
          The zero point of the vertical axis is defined by a surface that has meaning for the purpose which the associated vertical measurements are used for.
static VerticalDatumType VerticalDatumType.ELLIPSOIDAL
          A vertical datum for ellipsoidal heights that are measured along the normal to the ellipsoid used in the definition of horizontal datum.
static VerticalDatumType VerticalDatumType.GEOIDAL
          The zero value of the associated vertical coordinate system axis is defined to approximate a constant potential surface, usually the geoid.
static VerticalDatumType VerticalDatumType.ORTHOMETRIC
          A vertical datum for orthometric heights that are measured along the plumb line.
static VerticalDatumType VerticalDatumType.OTHER_SURFACE
          In some cases, e.g. oil exploration and production, a geological feature, such as the top or bottom of a geologically identifiable and meaningful subsurface layer, is used as a vertical datum.
 

Methods in org.opengis.referencing.datum that return VerticalDatumType
 VerticalDatumType VerticalDatum.getVerticalDatumType()
