All Known Implementing Classes:
GeoTransformObject
public interface GeoTransform
extends X3DGroupingNode
GeoTransform is a Grouping node that can contain most nodes.

X3D node tooltip: [X3DGroupingNode] GeoTransform is a Grouping node that can contain most nodes. GeoTransform translates, orients and scales GeoCoordinate geometry within the local world coordinate system. GeoTransform coordinate system X-Z plane is tangent to ellipsoid of local spatial reference frame.
  • Hint: +Y axis is up.
  • Hint: insert a Shape node before adding geometry or Appearance.
  • Hint: X3D for Advanced Modeling (X3D4AM) slideset http://x3dgraphics.com/slidesets/X3dForAdvancedModeling/GeospatialComponentX3dEarth.pdf
  • Warning: requires X3D profile='Full' or else include <component name='Geospatial' level='2'/>
  • Warning: avoid having GeoLocation or GeoTransform as a parent or ancestor node of each other, since multiple geospatial transformations then occur with unpredictable results.
