Some of the free software mentioned here does not have detailed maps (or maps at all) or the ability to follow streets or type in street names (no geocoding). However, in many cases, it is also that which makes the program free (and sometimes open source [ 1 ] ), avoid the need of an Internet connection, [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [ 4 ] and make it very ...
[7] [8] The app was updated with new features in Windows Phone 8.1 where the Maps app took on a Purple paper map-looking logo. [2] [3] Bing Maps at the time was powered by Nokia's data, which later became HERE Maps. [9] Windows Maps on Windows 10 Mobile then changed the layout of the Maps app, including the logo. Since coming out of preview ...
Great-circle navigation or orthodromic navigation (related to orthodromic course; from Ancient Greek ορθός (orthós) ' right angle ' and δρόμος (drómos) ' path ') is the practice of navigating a vessel (a ship or aircraft) along a great circle.

[Notes 5] In order to keep the result from being negative, Richter defined an earthquake with a maximum horizontal displacement of 1 μ m (which is also the highest accuracy and precision of the Wood Anderson torsion seismometer) recorded by the seismometer at the observation point at the epicentral distance of 100 km as a magnitude 0 ...
The boundaries of the latitude bands are parallel circles (dashed black lines in figure 1), which do not coincide with the boundaries of the 100,000-meter squares (blue lines in figure 1). For example, at the boundary between grid zones 1P and 1Q, we find a 100,000-meter square BT, of which about two thirds is south of latitude 16° and ...
They are based on the assumption that the figure of the Earth is an oblate spheroid, and hence are more accurate than methods that assume a spherical Earth, such as great-circle distance. The first (direct) method computes the location of a point that is a given distance and azimuth (direction) from another point.
NuCalc, also known as Graphing Calculator, is a computer software tool made by Pacific Tech. It can graph inequalities and vector fields, and functions in two, three, or four dimensions. It supports several different coordinate systems, and can solve equations. It runs on OS X as Graphing Calculator, and on Windows.
