Class DMSFilter

java.lang.Object

org.opensextant.extractors.xcoord.DMSFilter

All Implemented Interfaces:

GeocoordMatchFilter

public class DMSFilter
extends Object
implements GeocoordMatchFilter

DMS Filters include ignoring these patterns: dd-dd-dd HH:MM:ss (where dd-dd-dd HH-MM-ss would be a valid coordinate as the field separators for lat/lon are the same). Assumption: Date fields are separated by / and -; Time fields are separated by : So if you have a lat/lon with a [date] [time] pattern it is most likely not a [lat] [lon] pattern. As of 2012 Fall -- DMS-02 is very open ended pattern and matches parts of dates
