  2. Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Transverse...

    The point of origin of each UTM zone is the intersection of the equator and the zone's central meridian. To avoid dealing with negative numbers, a false Easting of −500 000 meters is added to the central meridian. Thus a point that has an easting of 400 000 meters is about 100 km west of the central meridian. For most such points, the true ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Maps

    Google Maps is a web mapping platform and consumer application offered by Google. It offers satellite imagery, aerial photography, street maps, 360° interactive panoramic views of streets (Street View), real-time traffic conditions, and route planning for traveling by foot, car, bike, air (in beta) and public transportation.

  4. Web Mercator projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_Mercator_projection

    The standard style for OpenStreetMap, like most Web maps, uses the Web Mercator projection. Web Mercator, Google Web Mercator, Spherical Mercator, WGS 84 Web Mercator [1] or WGS 84/Pseudo-Mercator is a variant of the Mercator map projection and is the de facto standard for Web mapping applications. It rose to prominence when Google Maps adopted ...

  5. Google Maps Navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Maps_Navigation

    Google Maps Navigation is a mobile application developed by Google for the Android and iOS operating systems that later integrated into the Google Maps mobile app. The application uses an Internet connection to a GPS navigation system to provide turn-by-turn voice-guided instructions on how to arrive at a given destination.

  6. Map projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_projection

    Distance from the tangent point on the map is proportional to straight-line distance through the Earth: r(d) = c sin ⁠ d / 2R ⁠ [38] Logarithmic azimuthal is constructed so that each point's distance from the center of the map is the logarithm of its distance from the tangent point on the Earth.

  7. Point plotting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_plotting

    Using point plotting, one associates an ordered pair of real numbers (x, y) with a point in the plane in a one-to-one manner. As a result, one obtains the 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system . To be able to plot points, one needs to first decide on a point in plane which will be called the origin , and a couple of perpendicular lines ...

  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.
