    From 1974 until the early-2000s, the map production area was the printing plant for USGS topographic maps and other paper products. The USGS Library, authorized by Congress in 1879, houses one of the world’s largest Earth and natural science collections. [5] The building originally had the capacity to house nearly 2,500 employees. [4]

  4. Visual field - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_field

    The binocular visual field is the superimposition of the two monocular fields. In the binocular field, the area left of the vertical meridian is referred to as the left visual field (which is located temporally for the left, and nasally for the right eye); a corresponding definition holds for the right visual field.

  7. Frontal eye fields - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frontal_eye_fields

    The frontal eye fields (FEF) are a region located in the frontal cortex, more specifically in Brodmann area 8 or BA8, [1] of the primate brain. In humans, it can be more accurately said to lie in a region around the intersection of the middle frontal gyrus with the precentral gyrus , consisting of a frontal and parietal portion. [ 2 ]

  8. Meridian (perimetry, visual field) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meridian_(perimetry...

    Each polar axis is a meridian of the visual field. For example, the horizontal meridian runs from the observer's left, through the fixation point, and to the observer's right. The vertical meridian runs from above the observer's line of sight, through the fixation point, and to below the observer's line of sight.

  9. Field of view - Wikipedia

    Note that eye movements are allowed in the definition but do not change the field of view when understood this way. If the analogy of the eye's retina working as a sensor is drawn upon, the corresponding concept in human (and much of animal vision) is the visual field. [2]
