- Method Detail
  - getDescriptor
```
MapTransformDescriptor getDescriptor()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Gets the descriptor for this map transform.
    
    Returns:
    
    the descriptor, should never be null
  - getParameterValues
```
double[] getParameterValues()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Gets the array of parameter values. The order in which the parameters are returned must exactly match the order in which the corresponding Parameter array is returned by the MapTransformDescriptor.getParameters() method.
    Important: Implementors of this method shall ensure that an element-wise copy of the given parameter array is created and returned.
    
    Returns:
    
    the array of parameter values.
  - forward
```
Point2D forward(GeoPos geoPoint,
                Point2D mapPoint)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Forward project geographical co-ordinates into map co-ordinates.
  - inverse
```
GeoPos inverse(Point2D mapPoint,
               GeoPos geoPoint)
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Inverse project map co-ordinates into geographical co-ordinates.
  - createDeepClone
```
MapTransform createDeepClone()
```
    Deprecated.
    
    Creates a deep clone of this MapTransform.
    
    Returns:
    
    a MapTransform clone
