+  # The Projection class represents a geographical projection.
+  #
+  # = Creating a new projection object
+  #
+  # Projection objects are created through the new method as usual. Depending on the kind of projection, many
+  # different parameters are needed. Please consult the documentation of the Proj.4 C library at http://trac.osgeo.org/proj/
+  # for details.
+  #
+  # There are several ways of specifying the parameters:
+  #
+  # [<b>as a String:</b>] A string with the parameters in '[+]key=value' format concatenated together. This is the format used by the <tt>proj</tt> and <tt>cs2cs</tt> command line tool.
+  #
+  #      proj = Projection.new "+proj=utm +zone=21 +units=m"
+  #
+  # [<b>as an Array:</b>] An array with each parameter as a member in the array in '[+]key=value' format.
+  #
+  #      proj = Projection.new [ "proj=utm", "zone=21", "units=m" ]
+  #
+  # [<b>as a Hash:</b>] A hash with strings or symbols as keys.
+  #
+  #      proj = Projection.new( "proj" => "utm", "zone" => "21", "units" => "m" )
+  #      proj = Projection.new( :proj => "utm", :zone => "21", :units => "m" )
+  #
+  # With all variants the plus sign in front of the keys is optional.
+  #
+  # = Using a projection object to project points
+  #
+  # There are two ways a projection can be used: Through the +forward+ and +inverse+ methods (with all their variants)
+  # you can do projection from longitudes and latitudes into the coordinate system used by the projection and back.
+  # These projections are always 2D, i.e. you need and get lon/lat or x/y coordinates.
+  #
+  # The alternative is the +transform+ method (with all its variants) which is used to transform 3D points from one
+  # projection and datum to another. In addition to the x/y coordinates the transform method also reads and returns
+  # a z coordinate.
+  #
+  # = Versions of the projection methods
+  #
+  # All three projection methods (+forward+, +inverse+, and +transform+) work on points. Every method has an in-place
+  # version (with a name ending in !) which changes the given point and a normal version which first creates a copy of
+  # the point object and changes and returns that. All methods use radians when reading or returning points. For
+  # convenience there are also +forwardDeg+ and +inverseDeg+ methods (and in-place versions <tt>forwardDeg!</tt>
+  # and <tt>inverseDeg!</tt>) that will work with degrees.
+  #
+  # = Points
+  #
+  # All projection method project points to other points. You can use objects of the Proj4::Point class for this or
+  # any other object which supports the x, y, z read and write accessor methods. (In fact you don't even need the
+  # z accessor methods, 0 is assumed if they don't exist.)
+  #
+  # Some projection methods act on the given point in-place, other return a copy of the point object. But in any case
+  # all other attributes of the point object are retained.
+  #
+  # = Projection collections
+  #
+  # The methods forward_all, inverse_all, and transform_all (and their in-place versions forward_all!,
+  # inverse_all!, and transform_all! work just like their simple counterparts, but instead of a single
+  # point they convert a collection of points in one go.
+  #
+  # These methods all take an array as an argument or any object responding to the +each+ method (for the in-place versions)
+  # or +each+, +clear+, and <tt><<</tt> methods (for the normal version).
+  #
+  # Some projection methods act on the given collection in-place, i.e. the collection is not touched and all points
+  # in the collection will be projected in-place. The other methods act on a copy of the collection and on copies
+  # of each point in the collection. So you'll get back a brand new copy of the collection with new copies of the
+  # points with the projected coordinates. In any case all other attributes of the collection and points are retained.
