About using the IGeoTransformationOperationSet methods

Using the IGeometry.Project method

1. Create a spatial reference factory.
2. Use the created spatial reference factory to create the spatial reference as a geographic coordinate system (GCS).
3. Set up the false origin and units of the spatial reference.
4. Create an envelope and set it with the spatial reference.
5. Create a projected coordinate system (PCS) using the spatial reference factory.
6. Query interface (QI) the envelope to IGeometry.
7. Call IGeometry.Project to project the envelope to the PCS.

Using the IGeoTransformationOperationSet methods

1. Create a spatial reference factory and environment.
2. Get a reference to IGeoTransformationOperationSet. This is a singleton object that lives with the SpatialReferenceEnvironment singleton object.
3. Create an instance of geotransformation.
4. Call IGeoTransformationOperationSet.Set using the geotransformation.
