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.
Null Island is the location at zero degrees latitude and zero degrees longitude ( 0°N 0°E ), i.e., where the prime meridian and the equator intersect. The name is often used in mapping software as a placeholder to help find and correct database entries that have erroneously been assigned the coordinates 0,0.
An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters; top = 56 Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees; bottom = 49.75 Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees; left = -6.75 Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees; right = 2 Longitude at right edge of map ...
In cartography, a map projection is any of a broad set of transformations employed to represent the curved two-dimensional surface of a globe on a plane. [ 1][ 2][ 3] In a map projection, coordinates, often expressed as latitude and longitude, of locations from the surface of the globe are transformed to coordinates on a plane. [ 4][ 5 ...
An alternative map image, usually a relief map, which can be displayed via the relief or AlternativeMap parameters; top = 49.2 Latitude at top edge of map, in decimal degrees; bottom = 45.3 Latitude at bottom edge of map, in decimal degrees; left = -125 Longitude at left edge of map, in decimal degrees; right = -116.7 Longitude at right edge of ...
45.625°N 10.75°E. / 45.625; 10.75. image. Alps location map.png. Map of the Alps. Module:Location map/data/Alps is a location map definition used to overlay markers and labels on an equirectangular projection map of the Alps. The markers are placed by latitude and longitude coordinates on the default map or a similar map image.
