2. Georeferencing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georeferencing

   Georeferencing or georegistration is a type of coordinate transformation that binds a digital raster image or vector database that represents a geographic space (usually a scanned map or aerial photograph) to a spatial reference system, thus locating the digital data in the real world. [1] [2] It is thus the geographic form of image registration.

3. Coordinate vector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_vector

   Coordinate vector. In linear algebra, a coordinate vector is a representation of a vector as an ordered list of numbers (a tuple) that describes the vector in terms of a particular ordered basis. [1] An easy example may be a position such as (5, 2, 1) in a 3-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system with the basis as the axes of this system.

4. Geographic coordinate conversion - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_coordinate...

   Geographic coordinate conversion has applications in cartography, surveying, navigation and geographic information systems . In geodesy, geographic coordinate conversion is defined as translation among different coordinate formats or map projections all referenced to the same geodetic datum. [1] A geographic coordinate transformation is a ...

5. Rotation matrix - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_matrix

   Appearance. In linear algebra, a rotation matrix is a transformation matrix that is used to perform a rotation in Euclidean space. For example, using the convention below, the matrix. rotates points in the xy plane counterclockwise through an angle θ about the origin of a two-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system.

6. Affine transformation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affine_transformation

   Definition. Let X be an affine space over a field k, and V be its associated vector space. An affine transformation is a bijection f from X onto itself that is an affine map; this means that a linear map g from V to V is well defined by the equation () = (); here, as usual, the subtraction of two points denotes the free vector from the second point to the first one, and "well-defined" means ...

7. Vector graphics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vector_graphics

   Vector graphics are a form of computer graphics in which visual images are created directly from geometric shapes defined on a Cartesian plane, such as points, lines, curves and polygons. The associated mechanisms may include vector display and printing hardware, vector data models and file formats, as well as the software based on these data ...

8. Rotation formalisms in three dimensions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotation_formalisms_in...

   Conversion from normal vector (Y. Representation of a normal as a rotation, this assumes that the Y axis vector (0,1,0) is pointing up. If some other axis is considered primary, the coordinates can be simply swapped. This assumes a normalized input vector in the direction of the normal

9. Web Mercator projection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 it in 2005. [2] It is used by virtually all major online map providers, including Google ...
