Fifth Order Polynomial Transform – Global Mapper

Given a set of Control points and their subsequent Observed points, the corresponding Fifth Order Polynomial Transform is generated. Once the MathTransform IsSolved, other points can be sent through, via Transform, and will be modified as follows:

x_in, y_in : input point coordinates
x_out, y_out : output point coordinates

x = (x_in + Xshift_in) * scale_in
y = (y_in + Yshift_in) * scale_in

x' = (Xx * x) + (Xy * y) + X1 + (Xxy * x * y) + (Xx2 * x * x) + (Xy2 * y * y) + (Xx3 * x * x * x) + (Xx2y * x * x * y) + (Xxy2 * x * y * y) + (Xy3 * y * y * y) + (Xx4 * x * x * x * x) + (Xx3y * x * x * x * y) + (Xx2y2 * x * x * y * y) + (Xxy3 * x * y * y * y) + (Xy4 * y * y * y * y) + (Xx5 * x * x * x * x * x) + (Xx4y * x * x * x * x * y) + (Xx3y2 * x * x * x * y * y) + (Xx2y3 * x * x * y * y * y) + (Xxy4 * x * y * y * y * y) + (Xy5 * y * y * y * y * y)
y' = (Yx * x) + (Yy * y) + Y1 + (Yxy * x * y) + (Yx2 * x * x) + (Yy2 * y * y) + (Yx3 * x * x * x) + (Yx2y * x * x * y) + (Yxy2 * x * y * y) + (Yy3 * y * y * y) + (Yx4 * x * x * x * x) + (Yx3y * x * x * x * y) + (Yx2y2 * x * x * y * y) + (Yxy3 * x * y * y * y) + (Yy4 * y * y * y * y) + (Yx5 * x * x * x * x * x) + (Yx4y * x * x * x * x * y) + (Yx3y2 * x * x * x * y * y) + (Yx2y3 * x * x * y * y * y) + (Yxy4 * x * y * y * y * y) + (Yy5 * y * y * y * y * y)

x_out = (x' * scale_out) + Xshift_out
y_out = (y' * scale_out) + Yshift_out
