Cast::LutMap	LutMap is a specialised form of Mapping which transforms 1-dimensional coordinates by using linear interpolation in a lookup table
Cast::MathMap	A MathMap is a Mapping which allows you to specify a set of forward and/or inverse transformation functions using arithmetic operations and mathematical functions similar to those available in C
Cast::MatrixMap	MatrixMap is a form of Mapping which performs a general linear transformation
Cast::NormMap	A Mapping which normalises coordinate values using the norm method of the supplied Frame
Cast::PcdMap	A PcdMap is a non-linear Mapping which transforms 2-dimensional positions to correct for the radial distortion introduced by some cameras and telescopes

Cast::SplineMap	SplineMap is a Mapping which performs a 2-in, 2-out Mapping defined by a pair of two- dimensional B-spline surfaces
Cast::TimeMap	A TimeMap is a specialised form of 1-dimensional Mapping which can be used to represent a sequence of conversions between standard time coordinate systems
Cast::TranMap	TranMap is a Mapping which combines the forward transformation of a supplied Mapping with the inverse transformation of another supplied Mapping, ignoring the un-used transformation in each Mapping (indeed the un-used transformation need not exist)
Cast::UnitMap	A UnitMap is a unit (null) Mapping that has no effect on the coordinates supplied to it
Cast::UnitNormMap	The forward transformation of a UnitNormMap subtracts the specified centre and then transforms the resulting vector to a unit vector and the vector norm
