| The GeocentricTransform class is the central access point for all transformations between different
crs's.
It creates a transformation chain for two given CoordinateSystems by considering their type. For example the
Transformation chain from EPSG:31466 ( a projected crs with underlying geographic crs epsg:4314 using the DHDN datum
and the TransverseMercator Projection) to EPSG:28992 (another projected crs with underlying geographic crs epsg:4289
using the 'new Amersfoort Datum' and the StereographicAzimuthal Projection) would result in following Transformation
Chain:
- Inverse projection - thus getting the coordinates in lat/lon for geographic crs epsg:4314
- Geodetic transformation - thus getting x-y-z coordinates for geographic crs epsg:4314
- WGS84 transformation -thus getting the x-y-z coordinates for the WGS84 datum
- Inverse WGS84 transformation -thus getting the x-y-z coordinates for the geodetic from epsg:4289
- Inverse geodetic - thus getting the lat/lon for epsg:4289
- projection - getting the coordinates (in meters) for epsg:28992
