Class: QgsCoordinateReferenceSystemUtils

class qgis.core.QgsCoordinateReferenceSystemUtils

Bases: sip.wrapper

Utility functions for working with QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem objects.

New in version 3.26:

Methods

axisDirectionToAbbreviatedString	Returns a translated abbreviation representing an axis direction.
defaultCoordinateOrderForCrs	Returns the default coordinate order to use for the specified crs.

axisDirectionToAbbreviatedString(axis: Qgis.CrsAxisDirection) → str

Returns a translated abbreviation representing an axis direction.

Parameters:

axis (Qgis.CrsAxisDirection) –

Return type:

str

defaultCoordinateOrderForCrs(crs: QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem) → Qgis.CoordinateOrder

Returns the default coordinate order to use for the specified crs.

Warning

This is quite a “coarse” method, in that many possible CRS axis don’t map well to a simply X/Y or Y/X order. Accordingly this method will default to returning Qgis.CoordinateOrder.XY unless we are reasonably certain of a Y/X order.

Parameters:

crs (QgsCoordinateReferenceSystem) –

Return type:

Qgis.CoordinateOrder
