  2. traceroute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traceroute

    MTR is an enhanced version of ICMP traceroute available for Unix-like and Windows systems. The various implementations of traceroute all rely on ICMP Time Exceeded (type 11) packets being sent to the source. On Linux, tracepath is a utility similar to traceroute, with the primary difference of not requiring superuser privileges. [12]

  3. Scale (map) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_(map)

    A small-scale map cover large regions, such as world maps, continents or large nations. In other words, they show large areas of land on a small space. They are called small scale because the representative fraction is relatively small. Large-scale maps show smaller areas in more detail, such as county maps or town plans might. Such maps are ...

  4. Map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map

    Generalization: All maps must be drawn at a smaller scale than reality, requiring that the information included on a map be a very small sample of the wealth of information about a place. Generalization is the process of adjusting the level of detail in geographic information to be appropriate for the scale and purpose of a map, through ...

  5. Linear scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_scale

    The length of the line on the linear scale is equal to the distance represented on the earth multiplied by the map or chart's scale. In most projections, scale varies with latitude, so on small scale maps, covering large areas and a wide range of latitudes, the linear scale must show the scale for the range of latitudes covered by the map. One ...

    A or x-scale; dimension of a pixel in map units in x-direction B, D are rotation terms C, F are translation terms: x, y map coordinates of the center of the upper-left pixel E is negative of y-scale: dimension of a pixel in map units in y-direction. The y-scale (E) is negative because the origins of an image and the UTM coordinate system are ...

  7. MTR (software) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MTR_(software)

    My traceroute, originally named Matt's traceroute (MTR), is a computer program that combines the functions of the traceroute and ping programs in one network diagnostic tool. [ 2 ] MTR probes routers on the route path by limiting the number of hops individual packets may traverse, and listening to responses of their expiry.

  9. World map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_map

    A world map is a map of most or all of the surface of Earth. World maps, because of their scale, must deal with the problem of projection. Maps rendered in two dimensions by necessity distort the display of the three-dimensional surface of the Earth. While this is true of any map, these distortions reach extremes in a world map.
