Project Method—ArcGIS Pro

Projects the given geometry to a new spatial reference. Same as GeometryEngine.ProjectEx(geometry, ProjectionTransformation.Create(geometry.SpatialReference, outputSpatialReference)); or, if both spatial references have vertical coordinate systems same as GeometryEngine.ProjectEx(geometry, ProjectionTransformation.CreateWithVertical(geometry.SpatialReference, outputSpatialReference));

Syntax

C#
Visual Basic (Declaration)

public Geometry Project( 
   Geometry geometry,
   SpatialReference outputSpatialReference
)

Public Function Project( _
   ByVal geometry As Geometry, _
   ByVal outputSpatialReference As SpatialReference _
) As Geometry

Parameters

geometry: The geometry to be projected.
outputSpatialReference: The spatial reference to which the geometry will be projected.

Return Value

The projected geometry.

Exceptions

Exception	Description
System.ArgumentNullException	Geometry is null or empty.
System.NotImplementedException	The method is not implemented for GeometryBag.
System.ArgumentNullException	geometry.SpatialReference or output spatial reference is null.
System.ArgumentException	geometry.SpatialReference or output spatial reference is unknown coordinate system.

Example

MapPoint pt = MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 3.0, SpatialReferences.WGS84);
Geometry result = GeometryEngine.Instance.Project(pt, SpatialReferences.WebMercator);
MapPoint projectedPt = result as MapPoint;

// create the polygon
List<MapPoint> pts = new List<MapPoint>();
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 1.0, SpatialReferences.WGS84));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(1.0, 2.0, SpatialReferences.WGS84));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(2.0, 2.0, SpatialReferences.WGS84));
pts.Add(MapPointBuilder.CreateMapPoint(2.0, 1.0, SpatialReferences.WGS84));

Polygon polygon = PolygonBuilder.CreatePolygon(pts);
// ensure it is simple
bool isSimple = GeometryEngine.Instance.IsSimpleAsFeature(polygon);

// create the spatial reference to project to
SpatialReference northPole = SpatialReferenceBuilder.CreateSpatialReference(102018);   // north pole stereographic 

// project
Geometry geometry = GeometryEngine.Instance.Project(polygon, northPole);
