ProjectionBase.MapUnitToGeoPoint(MapUnit) Method

Converts the specified map unit into the corresponding geographical point.

Namespace: DevExpress.XtraMap

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraMap.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Map

Declaration

C#

public abstract GeoPoint MapUnitToGeoPoint(
    MapUnit mapPoint
)

VB.NET

Public MustOverride Function MapUnitToGeoPoint(
    mapPoint As MapUnit
) As GeoPoint

Parameters

Name	Type	Description
mapPoint	MapUnit	A MapUnit object to be converted.

Returns

Type	Description
GeoPoint	A GeoPoint object containing geographical coordinates.

Example

This example shows how to get a Hammer-Aitoff map projection for the shapes loaded from the Shapefiles (Countries.shp, Countries.dbf).

To create a custom map projection, do the following:

• Inherit a ProjectionBase class;
• Override the ProjectionBase.GeoPointToMapUnit and ProjectionBase.MapUnitToGeoPoint methods, which specify formulas to calculate custom projection coordinates and map geographical points (longitude and latitude);
• Override the ProjectionBase.GeoToKilometersSize and ProjectionBase.KilometersToGeoSize methods to convert the specified size in geographical points to the corresponding size in kilometers for the specified anchor point and vice versa.
