Function Documentation

OGRCoordinateTransformation* OGRCreateCoordinateTransformation	(	OGRSpatialReference *	poSource,
		OGRSpatialReference *	poTarget
	)

Create transformation object.

This is the same as the C function OCTNewCoordinateTransformation().

Input spatial reference system objects are assigned by copy (calling clone() method) and no ownership transfer occurs.

The delete operator, or OCTDestroyCoordinateTransformation() should be used to destroy transformation objects.

The PROJ.4 library must be available at run-time.

Parameters:

	poSource	source spatial reference system.
	poTarget	target spatial reference system.

Returns:

NULL on failure or a ready to use transformation object.
