Remarks

PURPOSE: Provides the base representation for a datum transformation method such as geocentric translation, Helmert, Molodensky-Badekas, NADCON, or NTv2. These transformations are used by datum definitions to convert coordinates to and from WGS84.

BEHAVIOR: Stores the EPSG method code, associated ellipsoid, area of use, sequence number, and method-specific parameters. Concrete descendants implement the actual forward and reverse transformation logic for 2D and 3D geodetic coordinates.

USAGE: Typically referenced indirectly through a datum definition rather than used directly.

transform = datum.Transform
wgs84_point = transform.ToWGS3D(source_point)

CONSTRAINTS: This is an abstract base class. Interpretation of parameters A through J depends on the EPSG transformation method.
