Range Extension (1 of 2)
It will be possible to specify that a coordinate should be converted to a specific target SRF, even if in that target SRF, the coordinate would be characterized as Extended
For <Location>s in GD being converted to any projection-based SRF, the preceding definitions inherently result in “range extension”
- The data consumer necessarily forces a specific (e.g., “zoned UTM”) SRF at the time of specifying their retrieval SRF
- Thus, if the UTM Zone 17 SRF is selected as target, with the source being GD, then attempts to convert <GD_Location>s falling within the “extended bound” (for which GD errors have been well-defined) will succeed with a warning message
- Attempts outside the “extended bound” will (of course) fail
