	Patterns of geographic coordinates - A New Age / Bible Prophecy Discussion
		A subject I discussed on the page on Russia is a rectangular-shaped pattern of geographic coordinates, I associated with Hitler, Stalin, and World War 2.
		Note that 66-60 degree (or 67-00) coordinate sum graph is a diagonal line stretching from 67 N, 0 E on the Arctic Circle between Norway and Greenland, to 67 E 0 N in the Indian Ocean.
		To summarize: the geographic coordinates sum, converted to Book of Revelation passage, may relate locations to the End Times events including the rise of the Antichrist (Putin) and the Demon of the Bottomless Pit (Osama bin Laden).

	Orienteering - Geographic Coordinates
		Geographic coordinates appear on all standard military maps; on some they may be the only method of locating and referencing a specific point.
		The geographic coordinates of a point are found by dividing the sides of the geographic square in which the point is located into the required number of equal parts.
		If the geographic interval is 5'00" and the location of a point is required to the nearest second, each side of the geographic square must be divided into 300 equal parts (5'00" = 300"), each of which would have a value of one second.

	Planetographic Coordinates
		A uniform coordinate system is used throughout Scientific Astronomer for specifying longitude and latitude on the surface of an object.
		Geographic coordinates are used on the surface of the Earth.
		Alternative titles, such as areographic coordinates on Mars, selenographic coordinates on the Moon, and heliographic coordinates on the Sun, are sometimes used to refer to the equivalent systems.

		The accuracy of a geographic coordinate is known as TLE and indicates the difference between the estimated location of an object and its actual geographic location.
		All geographic coordinates are derived from some original source, such as a paper map or chart, an image, mission-planning system, a precise point-positioning system, or a GPS receiver.
		Geographic coordinates from unknown sources may not be reliable and should not be trusted.

	Geographic Information Retrieval and Spatial Browsing (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Geographic Information Retrieval, as we define it here, is an applied research area that combines aspects of DBMS research, User Interface Research, GIS research, and Information Retrieval research, and is concerned with indexing, searching, retrieving and browsing of geo-referenced information sources, and the design of systems to accomplish these tasks effectively and efficiently.
		Each geographic phrase, the probabilistic weight, and the coordinates derived in the preceding step can be represented as a three dimensional "extruded" polygon with its base in the plane of the x,z axes and which extends upward on the y axis a distance proportional to its weight (Figure 8a).
		The geographic coordinates to assign to the text segment being indexed are determined by choosing a threshold of "elevation" z in the skyline, taking the x,z plane at z, and using the polygons at that "elevation".

	Geographic Information Systems: A Glossary (Site not responding. Last check: )
		A plane coordinate system in which the locations of points in space are expressed by reference to two or three planes, called the "coordinate planes" (x,y or x,y,z).
		Coordinates are used to represent location on the earth's surface relative to other locations in either 2 (x,y) or 3 (x,y,z) dimensions.
		Geographic data are generally entered into a GIS database via a digitizer, scanner, or keyboard.

	Recording geographic coordinates in the MARC 21 Authority Format (Network Development and MARC Standards Office, ...
		The inclusion of geographic coordinates on bibliographic records for cartographic materials is a valuable way of defining specific coverage, but this data is frequently omitted since it is not required by cataloging rules and since many maps do not display them.
		Inclusion of geographic coordinates will be helpful to eliminate ambiguity for non-unique place names such as "Big Creek" which must sometimes deviate from the normal state or country qualifier and use county.
		Center point coordinates, while simpler and easier to provide, are less informative than bounding box or polygon coordinates that describe the area of a place by allowing one to draw a line around it.

	CRAMP RAT Geographic Coordinates
		In order to assure accuracy and precision of GPS coordinates to link with fish and benthic data, several different replicate methods of obtaining positions are used.
		Redundancy is further increased with known coordinates at stations that have established features such as prior survey data or experimentation.
		For accuracy assessment, these are compared to known coordinates from randomly generated points and features with known coordinates.

		Boundary coordinates are -60° for the east, and -150° for the west — north and south are represented at the poles; 90° in the north and -90° in the south.
		Geographic coordinates are angle measurements from the center of the earth, starting at arbitrary points on the earth's surface, known as the equator and the prime meridian.
		The UTM and Geographic coordinate systems are best used on a smaller scale (larger area) project as they are "global" systems, whereas State Plane Coordinate are best used on larger scale (smaller area) proejcts due the the increase accuracy coming from each zones standard lines being closer to the target area.

	GeoVRML 1.1 - Nodes
		Geographic coordinates tend to be large and require at least double-precision floating point values to represent detail at sub-millimeter range.
		It is a string containing the geographic coordinate for the point of intersection between the pointing device's location and the underlying geometry.
		These fields are defined using raw VRML coordinates - the use of geographic coordinates are not supported in the bounding box fields (This is because the bboxSize and bboxCenter fields of group nodes in the VRML97 specification are not "exposed" fields and as a result their value cannot be set from within a Script node).

	GEOGRAPHIC COORDINATES
		The most widely accepted system of locating a point on the Earth's surface uses lines of latitude and longitude known as geographic coordinates.
		So if you were locating a point that was one-quarter of the way between 30' and 31', it would be at 48 degrees, 30 minutes, 15 seconds north (48°30'15'N).
		When a position has less than 10° of latitude in its coordinate designation, a zero is added to the left of the degree number.

	NMPlot User's Guide, Chapter 20: Geographic Coordinate Systems
		The Equirectangular coordinate system is essentially a direct scaling of longitudes and latitudes to distances east and north, with the scaling selected such that distortion is minimized along the central latitude parallel.
		The Equirectangular coordinate system is often used to map bands that encircle the Earth and are enclosed by two fairly close parallels of latitude: for example, the region between latitudes 20° north and 30° north.
		This is an equal-area coordinate system, meaning that the areas of all regions are shown in the same proportion to their true areas.

	Coordinate Systems, Transformations and Units - SVG 1.1 - 20030114
		Both coordinates systems are established such that the origin matches the origin of the viewport (for the root viewport, the viewport origin is at the top/left corner), and one unit in the initial coordinate system equals one "pixel" in the viewport.
		When a coordinate or length value is a number without a unit identifier (e.g., "25"), then the given coordinate or length is assumed to be in user units (i.e., a value in the current user coordinate system).
		Then, coordinate (0,0) in the new user coordinate system is mapped to the (minx,miny) corner of the tight bounding box within the user coordinate system of the applicable element and coordinate (1,1) in the new user coordinate system is mapped to the (maxx,maxy) corner of the tight bounding box of the applicable element.
