Opis

The second edition of this book covers new topics that satisfy a growing need in the GIS, professional surveyor, machine control, and Big Data communities while continuing to embrace the earth center earth fixed coordinate system as the fundamental point of origin of one-dimensional, two-dimensional, and three-dimensional data sets. This edition also provides guidance and insight for continuing to link to the data collected and stored in older coordinate systems.
