    Means that a feature of size is at the limit of its size tolerance in the direction that leaves the most material on the part. Thus an internal feature of size (e.g., a hole) at its smallest diameter, or an external feature of size (e.g., a flange) at its biggest thickness. The GD&T symbol for MMC is a circled M.

    Example of true position geometric control defined by basic dimensions and datum features. Geometric dimensioning and tolerancing (GD&T) is a system for defining and communicating engineering tolerances via a symbolic language on engineering drawings and computer-generated 3D models that describes a physical object's nominal geometry and the permissible variation thereof.

  6. Typography (cartography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typography_(cartography)

    Size (usually measured by the block height in points) is usually used for a piece of text in a similar fashion as the map symbol it is labeling: to indicate the geographic extent of the feature, to fit into the visual hierarchy, or to represent some quantitative variable.

  7. Sign (semiotics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_(semiotics)

    A symbol depends as a sign on how it will be interpreted, regardless of resemblance or factual connection to its object; but the symbol's individual embodiment is an index to your experience of the object. A symbol is instanced by a specialized indexical sinsign.

  8. Local feature size - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Local_feature_size

    Local feature size refers to several related concepts in computer graphics and computational geometry for measuring the size of a geometric object near a particular point. Given a smooth manifold M {\displaystyle M} , the local feature size at any point x ∈ M {\displaystyle x\in M} is the distance between x {\displaystyle x} and the medial ...
