| | Coordinate system - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The rotation of coordinate systems is covered in depth on wikibooks. | | | In physics, a scalar is a physical quantity which assumes a single value which is a "real" quantity independent of the coordinate system. | | | Although any specific coordinate system is useful for numerical calculations in a given space, the space itself is considered to exist independently of any particular choice of coordinates. |

| | * Coordinate - (GIS): Definition |
| | Coordinate systems may be independent of or tied to a particular map projection... | | | All the ASDB coordinates have been computed using the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) projection. | | | Coordinate - The position of point is space in respect to a Cartesian coordinate system (x, y and/or z values). |

| | The tvd coordinate system, as defined by Epicentre, is generally defined in conjunction with the measured depth coordinate system, as the coordinates are typically transformed to reference sea level as a datum. | | | One is for use as a measured depth coordinate system, and the other four are for elevations or true vertical depths. | | | The measured depth coordinate system is defined as distance as measured along a well path. |

| | Coordinate Systems |
| | The reconciliation of coordinate systems between maps and digital geographic data can at times involve a lot of guess-work, and can result in an unpredictible spatial mismatch of data that will impact the quality of your analysis, and could render all of your findings indefensible. | | | When transforming coordinate systems it is important to think about transformation the way we think about other associative functions in information systems -- that is we are trying to define a function that simulates the actual distortion of the geometry in the unknown system. | | | There are two basic problems, one is where the coordinate system of one of the data sets is unknown, and the other is when we know specific information about each of them. |

| | ASC Coordinate Transformation-The Pixlib Library |
| | The coordinate transformation computation utilizes matrix arithmetic algorithms for coding efficiency and software reusability. | | | Once the coordinate framework is built (or initiated), a requested transformation call from, say, CPC to FP, is able to output coordinates in CPC for given coordinates in FP without asking for other inputs. | | | The pixlib coordinate transformation computations are performed with matrix arithmetic. |

| | MapSystems, unlike the other coordinate systems provided, can support a null or unspecified reference system enabling the creation of stand alone map systems, unrelated to any other geographical or map coordinate system. | | | The coordinate systems can be referenced by their names. | | | The origin of the map system is at the point where the plane is tangential to the geographical system's reference ellipsoid. |

| | Astronomical Coordinate Systems |
| | The coordinate systems considered here are all based at one reference point in space with respect to which the positions are measured, the origin of the reference frame (typically, the location of the observer, or the center of Earth, the Sun, or the Milky Way Galaxy). | | | The second coordinate of a position in the horizon system is defined by the point where the verticle circle of the position cuts the horizon. | | | This coordinate system is most useful for considerations of objects beyond the solar system, especially for considerations of objects of our Milky Way galaxy, and sometimes beyond. |

| | NetCDF Coordinate Conventions: Coordinate Systems Proposals |
| | In general, I agree with Walker and Waring's post http://my.unidata.ucar.edu/content/software/netcdf/coords/0058.html In particular their comment about multidimensional coordinate variables (as proposed by me and others) that: "From a purely mathematical (and esthetic)point of view, we also find the implied statement that d1, for example, depends on things other than d1, is confusing and illogical. | | | Since I've been thinking a lot about coordinate systems that should be useful for any netcdf use, I would like to complete that discussion first, then use whatever agreements we might make as a foundation for the "higher level" semantics needed for climate data. | | | I plan to post soon some formal definitions that I hope will be useful, also various examples that would be useful for a convention to cover, and that I hope others will contribute to. |
