  2. Circle of latitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_latitude

    Lines of longitude appear vertical with varying curvature in this projection, but are actually halves of great ellipses, with identical radii at a given latitude. Latitude (φ) Lines of latitude appear horizontal with varying curvature in this projection; but are actually circular with different radii. All locations with a given latitude are ...

  3. Line chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_chart

    Line chart showing the population of the town of Pushkin, Saint Petersburg from 1800 to 2010, measured at various intervals. A line chart or line graph, also known as curve chart, [1] is a type of chart that displays information as a series of data points called 'markers' connected by straight line segments. [2]

  4. Graticule (cartography) - Wikipedia

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

    A graticule (from Latin crāticula 'grill/grating'), on a map, is a graphical depiction of a coordinate system as a grid of lines, each line representing a constant coordinate value. [1] It is thus a form of isoline , and is commonly found on maps of many kinds, at scales from local to global.

  5. Longitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitude

    The lines from pole to pole are lines of constant longitude, or meridians. The circles parallel to the Equator are circles of constant latitude, or parallels. The graticule shows the latitude and longitude of points on the surface. In this example, meridians are spaced at 6° intervals and parallels at 4° intervals.

  6. Latitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Latitude

    The vertical lines from pole to pole are lines of constant longitude, or meridians. The circles parallel to the equator are lines of constant latitude, or parallels. The graticule shows the latitude and longitude of points on the surface. In this example meridians are spaced at 6° intervals and parallels at 4° intervals.

  7. Geographic coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_coordinate_system

    The latitude φ of a point on Earth's surface is the angle between the equatorial plane and the straight line that passes through that point and through (or close to) the center of the Earth. [note 2] Lines joining points of the same latitude trace circles on the surface of Earth called parallels, as they are parallel to the Equator and to each ...

  8. Line graph - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_graph

    In the mathematical discipline of graph theory, the line graph of an undirected graph G is another graph L(G) that represents the adjacencies between edges of G. L(G) is constructed in the following way: for each edge in G, make a vertex in L(G); for every two edges in G that have a vertex in common, make an edge between their corresponding vertices in L(G).

  9. Parallel coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_coordinates

    Parallel Coordinates plots are a common method of visualizing high-dimensional datasets to analyze multivariate data having multiple variables, or attributes. To plot, or visualize, a set of points in n -dimensional space , n parallel lines are drawn over the background representing coordinate axes, typically oriented vertically with equal spacing.
