  2. Parallel projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_projection

    Orthographic projection is derived from the principles of descriptive geometry, and is a type of parallel projection where the projection rays are perpendicular to the projection plane. It is the projection type of choice for working drawings .

  3. Orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthographic_projection

    Orthographic projection (also orthogonal projection and analemma) [a] is a means of representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions.Orthographic projection is a form of parallel projection in which all the projection lines are orthogonal to the projection plane, [2] resulting in every plane of the scene appearing in affine transformation on the viewing surface.

Plate carrée: special case having the equator as the standard parallel. 1745 Cassini = Cassini ...

  5. Multiview orthographic projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiview_orthographic...

    Orthographic multiview projection is derived from the principles of descriptive geometry and may produce an image of a specified, imaginary object as viewed from any direction of space. Orthographic projection is distinguished by parallel projectors emanating from all points of the imaged object and which intersect of projection at right angles.

  6. Orthographic map projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthographic_map_projection

    Orthographic projection in cartography has been used since antiquity. Like the stereographic projection and gnomonic projection, orthographic projection is a perspective projection in which the sphere is projected onto a tangent plane or secant plane. The point of perspective for the orthographic projection is at infinite distance.

  7. 3D projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3D_projection

    The orthographic projection is derived from the principles of descriptive geometry and is a two-dimensional representation of a three-dimensional object. It is a parallel projection (the lines of projection are parallel both in reality and in the projection plane). It is the projection type of choice for working drawings.

  8. Axonometric projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometric_projection

    Classification of Axonometric projection and some 3D projections "Axonometry" means "to measure along the axes". In German literature, axonometry is based on Pohlke's theorem, such that the scope of axonometric projection could encompass every type of parallel projection, including not only orthographic projection (and multiview projection), but also oblique projection.

    To get a true view (length in the projection is equal to length in 3D space) of one of the lines: SU in this example, projection 3 is drawn with hinge line H 2,3 parallel to S 2 U 2. To get an end view of SU, projection 4 is drawn with hinge line H 3,4 perpendicular to S 3 U 3. The perpendicular distance d gives the shortest distance between PR ...
