  2. Oblique projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_projection

    Oblique projection is a simple type of technical drawing of graphical projection used for producing two-dimensional (2D) images of three-dimensional (3D) objects. The objects are not in perspective and so do not correspond to any view of an object that can be obtained in practice, but the technique yields somewhat convincing and useful results.

  3. Parallel projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallel_projection

    In three-dimensional geometry, a parallel projection (or axonometric projection) is a projection of an object in three-dimensional space onto a fixed plane, known as the projection plane or image plane, where the rays, known as lines of sight or projection lines, are parallel to each other. It is a basic tool in descriptive geometry.

  4. Axonometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axonometry

    But, as the engineer projection and the standard isometry are scaled orthographic projections, the contour of a sphere is a circle in these cases, as well. As the diagram shows, an ellipse as the contour of a sphere might be confusing, so, if a sphere is part of an object to be mapped, one should choose an orthogonal axonometry or an engineer ...

  5. 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.

  6. Descriptive geometry - Wikipedia

    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 ...

    Equirectangular projection of the world; the standard parallel is the equator (plate carrée projection). Equirectangular projection with Tissot's indicatrix of deformation and with the standard parallels lying on the equator True-colour satellite image of Earth in equirectangular projection Height map of planet Earth at 2km per pixel, including oceanic bathymetry information, normalized as 8 ...

  8. 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.

  9. Projectional radiography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Projectional_radiography

    Oblique - Projection taken with the central ray at an angle to any of the body planes. Described by the angle of obliquity and the portion of the body the X-ray beam exits; right or left and posterior or anterior. For example, a 45 degree Right Anterior Oblique of the Cervical Spine. Flexion - Joint is radiographed while in flexion
