	Distance - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Such a distance function is known as a metric.
		One might attempt to define the distance between two non-empty subsets of a given set as the infimum of the distances between any two of their respective points, which would agree with the every-day use of the word.
		Distance is a scalar quantity, containing only a magnitude, whereas displacement is an equivalent vector quantity containing both magnitude and direction.

	ET&S [3(1)] - Brent Muirhead - Interactivity in a Graduate Distance Education School (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		On-line educators strive to create a democratic climate that encourages students to share their views and ideas freely.
		In addition to the required written assignments, such as posting weekly comments for on-line discussion forums and term papers, the professors encouraged students to write on subjects that were relevant to their personal and professional interests.
		Distance education literature reveals a strong emphasis on students who are motivated, have good time management skills, and are self-reliant.

	In-class exercise #4: Line transect
		Selecting clusters would invoke a routine to estimate cluster size based on distances and related cluster sizes from your data set and inevitably multiply the average cluster size by the density estimate for groups to get the population density estimate.
		Enter the units that you measured your distances in (meters) and the units that you want your results to be presented in (meters).
		DISTANCE is designed for interactive modeling of your data, you can run multiple models and compare the results using information criterion.

	Lab 6: Line transect
		Distance sampling is a "plotless" method for estimating abundance of biological populations (see Buckland et al.
		The probability of detecting an object decreases as its distance from the line increases.
		Note: sighting distance and sighting angle are the measurements most commonly recorded in wildlife studies because the observer does not have to move from the original sighting position to obtain these data (and thus is less likely to "flush" additional animals during the measurement process).

	Fit a 3-Dimensional Line to Data Points
		The direct distance is along a line that runs from the point and is perpendicular to the target line.
		But this overspecifies the line because a 3D line can be defined by 4 parameters as long as it is not parallel to one of the X, Y or Z planes.
		Rather than allowing an arbitrary point (X0,Y0,Z0) to specify a point on the line, we will force Z0 to be 0 and make X0 and Y0 be the coordinates on the X-Y plane where the line penetrates the plane (i.e., where Z is zero).

	Online Distance Learning Report
		On-line education is making it possible for students from around the world to study at prestigious United States’ schools without leaving their homes (Gubernick and Ebeling, 1997).
		On-line distance learning is not only a more flexible method of learning in time and space, but on-line learning is also cost effective.
		On-line distance learning is a more efficient means of delivering education to those who have limitations on their ability to attend traditional classes.

	Topographic Maps - Distance
		The horizontal distance is also referred to as the "map distance", and is the distance between two points as scaled off of the map.
		The distance should be interpolated to the nearest 0.1 mm, then multiplied by the scale factor to define a distance.
		With the measurement of distance of travel we come to the first (of many!) measurement technique which carries with it a significant amount of operator judgement.

	Distance from a Point to a Line
		We must often express the distance from a point to a line in terms of the coefficients in the equation of the line.
		The distance of this line from the origin is OS, and the difference between OS and p is d.
		The slope of a vertical line is meaningless.

	Jenness Enterprises - ArcView Extensions; Longest Straight Line
		Distance: The distance in map units of the longest straight line crossing the polygon.
		Remember that distance calculations are based on the coordinate system of the data and that therefore distances based on Latitude/Longitude coordinates will come out in units of "degrees," which are rarely useful to the user.
		Distances measured in "degrees" become especially problematic the farther you get from the equator, since longitudinal degrees are not the same as latitudinal degrees.

		A distance line or penetration line is an item of diving equipment used by SCUBA divers as a means of returning to a safe starting point in conditions of low visibility, water currents or where pilotage is difficult.

	Introduction to "On-Line and Distance Education"
		The authors are all students in the senior-level course, "On-Line and Distance Learning", being offered for the first time at the Faculty of Educational Science and Technology in The Netherlands.
		The goals of the course were to give the students a wide range of experiences in various aspects of on-line learning, both as a supplement to traditional face-to-face courses and to support distance participation.
		Having external colleagues with whom they could work cooperatively on an on-line task was a valuable experience for the students, and the generous contributions of time and input that the external reviewers made is much appreciated.

	Distance Measures in Cosmology
		The unifying aspect is that all distance measures somehow measure the separation between events on radial null trajectories, ie, trajectories of photons which terminate at the observer.
		I treat the concept of "distance measure" very liberally, so, for instance, the lookback time and comoving volume are both considered distance measures.
		For small v / c, or small distance d, in the expanding Universe, the velocity is linearly proportional to the distance (and all the distance measures, eg, angular diameter distance, luminosity distance, etc, converge)

	Directions for Future Research in On-line Distance Education
		The findings showed that although the performance of 60% of on-line students improved in the second year of the programme, compared to traditional method students and access to the lecturer is a great potential benefit of on-line learning, the need to keep up to date with fortnightly exercises reduced the flexibility of on-line distance education.
		In terms of on-line distance education, access is the first criterion considered in deciding whether the technology, learning resources, the tutor and peers are accessible by students at a distance or not.
		The attributes of the on-line environment (e.g., interactivity, immediate feedback, accessibility, ease of use, navigation, active engagement, user-friendliness, etc.) should be described and their instructional roles should be defined to understand how the attributes of the medium were employed to support learning.

	"Target and Distance Casting Practice Seminar, Lesson Seven - Jim C. Chapralis - Fly Angler's OnLine
		The big difference between the Angler's Distance Fly (which we covered in Lesson Six) and the Single-handed is that the latter employs a heavy, longer line which requires a much heavier fly rod than you're going to find in fly shops.
		What the Single-handed Distance Fly event teaches you is the importance of a flawless casting stroke, timing and the precise execution of the double haul.
		Since the standard line rating system is based on the weight (in grains) for the first 30 feet, it would be a No. 12, but because of the minimum length (almost 50 feet) it's equivalent to a No.
