Class CoordinateTransformer

java.lang.Object
  edu.nps.moves.disutil.CoordinateTransformer

public abstract class CoordinateTransformer
extends java.lang.Object

Abstract superclass for doing global coordinate transforms. Given a Vector3Double that specifies the location of an entity in the world, transforms it from a given initial coordinate system (such as lat/lon/altitude, or x/y/altitude) to another coordinate system, such as DIS earth-centered. This transformation is carried out in the concrete subclass.

Ideally you want to translate into DIS standard coordinates, but not everyone actually uses that, so I'm agnostic about whether you want to follow the standard. If you want to write a transform that puts lat/lon on the wire, that's up to you.
