CoordinateSystem

class pisces.geometry.coordinates.base.CoordinateSystem(**parameters)

Base class for all Pisces coordinate systems.

The CoordinateSystem provides a common interface for defining and interacting with coordinate systems including converting from one coordinate system to another.

Methods

__init__(**parameters)	Initialize the coordinate system with validated parameters.
convert_coords_from(other, *coordinates)	Convert coordinates from another coordinate system into this system.
convert_coords_to(other, *coordinates)	Convert coordinates from this system into another coordinate system.
convert_from_cartesian(*coordinates)	Convert coordinates from Cartesian to this system.
convert_to_cartesian(*coordinates)	Convert coordinates from this system to Cartesian.
copy()	Return a shallow copy of the coordinate system.
default_parameters()	Return a copy of the default parameters for this coordinate system.
from_dict(data)	Deserialize a coordinate system from a dictionary.
from_json_string(json_string)	Deserialize a coordinate system from a JSON string.
to_dict()	Return a dictionary representation of the coordinate system, including its class name and parameters.
to_json_string()	Serialize the coordinate system to a JSON string.

Attributes

axes	Return the names of the axes in this coordinate system.
ndim	Return the number of dimensions of this coordinate system.
parameters	Return a copy of the coordinate system's parameters.
