MapAPI.getProjectionName

string getProjectionName()

This method returns the full name of the map's projection if the map is of type NEMR (See Map Types).  Under proper conditions, one of the following strings is returned:

• Universal Transverse Mercator
• Lambert Conformal Conic
• Gnomonic
• Stereographi
• Polar Stereographic
• Mercator
• Gauss Kruger
• Cassini
• Polyconic
• Rectified Skew
• Transverse Mercator

If the map is not of type NEMR, the following string is returned:

• Coordinate system is not NEMR

If the map is of type NEMR, but the projection is not one of the above, the following string is returned:

• Unknown projection

This should not normally occur and would typically indicated corruption of the map dataset.
