In geometry, a coordinate system is a system that uses one or more numbers, or coordinates, to uniquely determine the position of the points or other...

rotation. They are also known as local ellipsoidal system, local geodetic coordinate system, local vertical, local horizontal coordinates (LVLH), or...

The horizontal coordinate system is a celestial coordinate system that uses the observer's local horizon as the fundamental plane to define two angles...

A spatial reference system (SRS) or coordinate reference system (CRS) is a framework used to precisely measure locations on the surface of Earth as coordinates...

chart and such a coordinate system is called a local coordinate system, coordinate chart, coordinate patch, coordinate map, or local frame. An atlas for...

In mathematics, a spherical coordinate system is a coordinate system for three-dimensional space where the position of a given point in space is specified...

The equatorial coordinate system is a celestial coordinate system widely used to specify the positions of celestial objects. It may be implemented in spherical...

Local coordinates are the ones used in a local coordinate system or a local coordinate space. Simple examples: Houses. In order to work in a house construction...

A geographic coordinate system (GCS) is a spherical or geodetic coordinate system for measuring and communicating positions directly on Earth as latitude...

supergalactic coordinate system is a reference frame for the supercluster of galaxies that contains the Milky Way galaxy, referenced to a local relatively...

A projected coordinate system – also called a projected coordinate reference system, planar coordinate system, or grid reference system – is a type of...

Earth-fixed coordinate system (acronym ECEF), also known as the geocentric coordinate system, is a cartesian spatial reference system that represents...

The State Plane Coordinate System (SPCS) is a set of 125 geographic zones or coordinate systems designed for specific regions of the United States. Each...

In astronomy, coordinate systems are used for specifying positions of celestial objects (satellites, planets, stars, galaxies, etc.) relative to a given...

geographic coordinate systems is made necessary by the different geographic coordinate systems in use across the world and over time. Coordinate conversion...

In geometry, curvilinear coordinates are a coordinate system for Euclidean space in which the coordinate lines may be curved. These coordinates may be...

frame of reference. By using a coordinate system commonly used in planar motion, the so-called local coordinate system, as shown in Figure 1, it becomes...

a local coordinate system in a neighborhood of p obtained by applying the exponential map to the tangent space at p. In a normal coordinate system, the...

its motion relative to a (local) coordinate system which moves together with the femur, rather than a (global) coordinate system which is fixed to the floor...

how the local coordinate bases change from point to point. At each point of the underlying n-dimensional manifold, for any local coordinate system around...
