Projection — OpenLayers API reference

new Projection(options) proj/Projection.js, line 62

Name	Type	Description
`code`	string	The SRS identifier code, e.g. `EPSG:4326`.
`units`	Units \| undefined	Units. Required unless a proj4 projection is defined for `code`.
`extent`	Extent \| undefined	The validity extent for the SRS.
`axisOrientation`	string (defaults to 'enu')	The axis orientation as specified in Proj4.
`global`	boolean (defaults to false)	Whether the projection is valid for the whole globe.
`metersPerUnit`	number \| undefined	The meters per unit for the SRS. If not provided, the `units` are used to get the meters per unit from the `METERS_PER_UNIT` lookup table.
`worldExtent`	Extent \| undefined	The world extent for the SRS.
`getPointResolution`	GetPointResolution \| undefined	Function to determine resolution at a point. The function is called with a `number` view resolution and a `Coordinate` as arguments, and returns the `number` resolution in projection units at the passed coordinate. If this is `undefined`, the default `getPointResolution` function will be used.

Methods

getAxisOrientation(){string} proj/Projection.js, line 204

Get the axis orientation of this projection. Example values are: enu - the default easting, northing, elevation. neu - northing, easting, up - useful for "lat/long" geographic coordinates, or south orientated transverse mercator. wnu - westing, northing, up - some planetary coordinate systems have "west positive" coordinate systems

Returns:

Axis orientation.

getCode(){string} proj/Projection.js, line 151

Get the code for this projection, e.g. 'EPSG:4326'.

Returns:

Code.

getExtent(){Extent} proj/Projection.js, line 160

Get the validity extent for this projection.

Returns:

Extent.

getMetersPerUnit(){number | undefined} proj/Projection.js, line 180

Get the amount of meters per unit of this projection. If the projection is not configured with metersPerUnit or a units identifier, the return is undefined.

Returns:

Meters.

getUnits(){Units} proj/Projection.js, line 169

Get the units of this projection.

Returns:

Units.

getWorldExtent(){Extent} proj/Projection.js, line 189

Get the world extent for this projection.

Returns:

Extent.

isGlobal(){boolean} proj/Projection.js, line 213

Is this projection a global projection which spans the whole world?

Returns:

Whether the projection is global.

setExtent(extent) proj/Projection.js, line 246

Set the validity extent for this projection.

Name	Type	Description

setGetPointResolution(func) proj/Projection.js, line 267

Name	Type	Description
`func`	function	Function

setGlobal(global) proj/Projection.js, line 222

Set if the projection is a global projection which spans the whole world

Name	Type	Description
`global`	boolean	Whether the projection is global.

setWorldExtent(worldExtent) proj/Projection.js, line 257

Set the world extent for this projection.

Name	Type	Description
