ISpatialReferenceInfo Interface

Provides access to members that control the properties common to all components of a spatial reference system.

Members

	Name	Description
	Abbreviation	The abbreviated name of this spatial reference component.
	Alias	The alias of this spatial reference component.
	FactoryCode	The factory code (WKID) of the spatial reference.
	Name	The name of this spatial reference component.
	Remarks	The comment string of this spatial reference component.

ISpatialReferenceInfo.Abbreviation Property

The abbreviated name of this spatial reference component.

Public ReadOnly Property Abbreviation As String

public string Abbreviation {get;}

ISpatialReferenceInfo.Alias Property

The alias of this spatial reference component.

Public ReadOnly Property Alias As String

public string Alias {get;}

ISpatialReferenceInfo.FactoryCode Property

The factory code (WKID) of the spatial reference.

Public ReadOnly Property FactoryCode As Integer

public int FactoryCode {get;}

Remarks

The factory code is an integer identifier that is unique by projection engine object type, such as a projected coordinate system. You can use a factory code in the ISpatialReferenceFactory::CreateProjectedCoordinateSystem method for example. If you create a custom projected coordinate system, the factory code is zero.

ISpatialReferenceInfo.Name Property

The name of this spatial reference component.

Public ReadOnly Property Name As String

public string Name {get;}

ISpatialReferenceInfo.Remarks Property

The comment string of this spatial reference component.

Public ReadOnly Property Remarks As String

public string Remarks {get;}
