ICoordinateSystemFactory.CreateHorizontalDatum Method 

Creates horizontal datum from ellipsoid and Bursa-Wolf parameters.

[Visual Basic]
Function CreateHorizontalDatum( _
   ByVal name As String, _
   ByVal horizontalDatumType As DatumType, _
   ByVal ellipsoid As IEllipsoid, _
   ByVal toWGS84 As WGS84ConversionInfo _
) As IHorizontalDatum
[C#]
IHorizontalDatum CreateHorizontalDatum(
   string name,
   DatumType horizontalDatumType,
   IEllipsoid ellipsoid,
   WGS84ConversionInfo toWGS84
);

Parameters

name
Name to give new object.
horizontalDatumType
Type of horizontal datum to create.
ellipsoid
Ellipsoid to use in new horizontal datum.
toWGS84
Suggested approximate conversion from new datum to WGS84.

Return Value

Missing <returns> documentation for M:Geotools.CoordinateReferenceSystems.ICoordinateSystemFactory.CreateHorizontalDatum(System.String,Geotools.CoordinateReferenceSystems.DatumType,Geotools.CoordinateReferenceSystems.IEllipsoid,Geotools.CoordinateReferenceSystems.WGS84ConversionInfo)

Remarks

Since this method contains a set of Bursa-Wolf parameters, the created datum will always have a relationship to WGS84. If you wish to create a horizontal datum that has no relationship with WGS84, then you can either specify CS_HD_Other as the horizontalDatumType, or create it via WKT.
