  2. Geographic coordinate conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_coordinate...

    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 ...

  3. Blue Marble Geographics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Marble_Geographics

    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.

  4. Wikipedia:Coordinate-referenced map templates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Coordinate...

    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.

  5. Helmert transformation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helmert_transformation

    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).

  6. Template:Coord/sandbox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Coord/sandbox

    Encodes the latitude and longitude coordinates of a location, provides a link to map of the location. This template does not work well with the Visual Editor, consider using {{coordDec}} for signed decimal degrees, {{coordDMS}} when degrees minutes and seconds are specified {{coordDM}} when only degrees and minutes are specified. To use this template you will need to use positional parameter ...

  7. Category:Coordinates conversion templates - Wikipedia

    [[Category:Coordinates conversion templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Coordinates conversion templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.

  8. Geodetic datum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geodetic_datum

    A geodetic datum or geodetic system (also: geodetic reference datum, geodetic reference system, or geodetic reference frame, or terrestrial reference frame) is a global datum reference or reference frame for unambiguously representing the position of locations on Earth by means of either geodetic coordinates (and related vertical coordinates) or geocentric coordinates. [1]

  9. World Geographic Reference System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_geographic_reference...

    These letters form the third and fourth characters of a full GEOREF coordinate. Four letters thus identify any 1-degree quadrangle in the world. Each of the 1-degree quadrangles is further subdivided into 60 1-minute longitude zones, numbered 00 through 59 from west to east, and 60 1-minute latitude bands, numbered 00 to 59 from south to north.
