    v. t. e. A geographic coordinate system ( GCS) is a spherical or geodetic coordinate system for measuring and communicating positions directly on Earth as latitude and longitude. [ 1] It is the simplest, oldest and most widely used of the various spatial reference systems that are in use, and forms the basis for most others.

    Geodetic coordinates P (ɸ,λ,h) Geodetic coordinates are a type of curvilinear orthogonal coordinate system used in geodesy based on a reference ellipsoid . They include geodetic latitude (north/south) ϕ, longitude (east/west) λ, and ellipsoidal height h (also known as geodetic height[ 1] ). The triad is also known as Earth ellipsoidal ...

  8. Coordinate system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coordinate_system

    In geometry, a coordinate system is a system that uses one or more numbers, or coordinates, to uniquely determine the position of the points or other geometric elements on a manifold such as Euclidean space. [1] [2] The order of the coordinates is significant, and they are sometimes identified by their position in an ordered tuple and sometimes ...

  9. Great-circle navigation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great-circle_navigation

    Great-circle navigation. 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. Such routes yield the shortest distance between two points on the globe.
