DESCRIPTION:
From the basics of coordinate systems to specific practical examples, this book covers GIS coordinates without pages of complicated math; yet it is not oversimplified.This volume analyzes state plane coordinates, UTM coordinates, and the rectangular system in a concise format. To help you apply the information, each chapter concludes with review questions and answers.. It is about understanding how these systems work, and how they sometimes don't work. Basic GIS Coordinates explains how coordinates tie the real world to its electronic image in the computer. It is a user-friendly study for those who need to apply GIS technology and resulting coordinates. Basic GIS Coordinates is about providing some of the critical information needed to understand coordinate systems and effectively interpret GIS techn
Basic GIS Coordinates A Customer Well Jan has done it again! "Basic GIS Coordinates" should prove to be a much applauded and appreciated work not unlike his other books. Again he has explained and presented complex subjects in a simple down-to-earth manner. This book is great for gaining a basic understanding of geodesy without all of the "science". For the seasoned veteran it has value as well. There are some new illustrations that he has put in the book that give a different persp. "GOOD BOOK" according to Horacio. IS A GOOD BOOK THAT EXPLAINS GEODETIC COORDINATES, WHAT IS A PROJECTION, THE BASICS OF COORDINATES FOR SPCS AND A BRIEF UTM EXPLANATION.IF YOU ARE AN ENGINEERING OR SURVEYOR STARTING TO WORK ON GPS THIS WILL HELP SPECIALLY IF YOU WORK WITH SPCS, NOT MUCH IF YOU DO WORK WITH UTM.
