Data types

This section describes the numerous data types in use in PROJ.4. As a rule of thumb PROJ.4 data types are prefixed with PJ_, or in one particular case, is simply called PJ. A few notable exceptions can be traced back to the very early days of PROJ.4 when the PJ_ prefix was not consistently used.

Transformation objects

PJ

Object containing everything related to a given projection or transformation. As a user of the PROJ.4 library you are only exposed to pointers to this object and the contents is hidden behind the public API. PJ objects are created with proj_create() and destroyed with proj_destroy().

PJ_DIRECTION

Enumeration that is used to convey in which direction a given transformation should be performed. Used in transformation function call as described in the section on transformation functions.

Forward transformations are defined with the :c:

typedef enum proj_direction {
    PJ_FWD   =  1,   /* Forward    */
    PJ_IDENT =  0,   /* Do nothing */
    PJ_INV   = -1    /* Inverse    */
} PJ_DIRECTION;

PJ_FWD

Perform transformation in the forward direction.

PJ_IDENT

Identity. Do nothing.

PJ_INV

Perform transformation in the inverse direction.

PJ_CONTEXT

Context objects enable safe multi-threaded usage of PROJ.4. Each PJ object is connected to a context (if not specified, the default context is used). All operations within a context should be performed in the same thread. PJ_CONTEXT objects are created with proj_context_create() and destroyed with proj_context_destroy().

PJ_AREA

New in version 6.0.0.

Opaque object describing an area in which a transformation is performed.

It is used with proj_create_crs_to_crs() to select the best transformation between the two input coordinate reference systems.
