Martin Desruisseaux closed SIS-260. ----------------------------------- > Geographic 3D to 2D conversions (EPSG:9659) > ------------------------------------------- > > Key: SIS-260 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SIS-260 > Project: Spatial Information Systems > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Referencing > Reporter: Martin Desruisseaux > Assignee: Martin Desruisseaux > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 0.7 > > > The forward case (3D to 2D) is trivial: just drop the height. The reverse > conversion however is in principle undefined, but in practice often needed. > The "less bad" approach would be to take a mean-sea level of 0, which is > uneasy to convert to ellipsoidal height.
