In geodesy, geographic coordinate conversion is defined as translation among different coordinate formats or map projections all referenced to the same geodetic datum. [1] A geographic coordinate transformation is a translation among different geodetic datums. Both geographic coordinate conversion and transformation will be considered in this ...
Blue Marble's first software product, the Geographic Calculator, [2] was developed in 1992 and released in 1993. The Geographic Calculator is a coordinate conversion library with a database of coordinate mathematical objects including projections, coordinate systems, datums, ellipsoids, linear and angular units.
Find the coordinates (generally latitude and longitude) of the geographic location you want to link; Select the template with the appropriate scale for the map to zoom into; Add the coordinates to the template using the template's format; Place the template reference into the article; Suggestions for accomplishing each step are below.
Convert from geodetic coordinates to geocentric coordinates: Calculation of x, y and z relative to the reference ellipsoid of surveying 7-parameter transformation (where x , y and z almost always change by a few hundred metres at most, and distances by a few mm per km).
uses of older templates are currently being migrated to this format using a bot; Data entered into template is validated (input validation) One template for all input formats; named parameters for coordinates (NS=/EW=) named parameters for type/region/globe etc. Less overhead (5-10 subtemplates only). can display text/icons instead of ...
The first edition (ISO 6709:1983) was developed by ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 32. Later the standard was transferred to ISO/TC211, Geographic information/Geomatics in 2001. The committee completely revised the second edition (ISO 6709:2008). There was a short technical corrigendum (ISO 6709:2008/Cor 1:2009) released in 2009. [1]
To add to the top of an article, use {{}}, {{Coord|57|18|22|N|4|27|32|W|display=title}} These coordinates are in degrees, minutes, and seconds of arc. "title" means that the coordinates will be displayed next to the article's title at the top of the page (in desktop view only; title coordinates do not display in mobile view) and before any other text or images.
This template is primarily intended for the mass conversion of coordinate sets in lists. For individual sets of coordinates, the online conversion tool provided by Swisstopo may be preferred. For extended documentation, see de:Vorlage:CH1903-WGS84, from where this template has been copied.
