datum

en-noun

datum (plural (senses 1–3) data or (senses 1 and 4–5) datums)

Borrowed from Latin datum (“a given”). Doublet of die.

Near-synonym: benchmark

A geodetic datum is sometimes also called a benchmark.

The machinist is required to measure this dimension from the hole circle datum when determining whether it is within tolerance.

In a strict sense, a tidal datum can be understood as the reference plane (or surface) to which the height of a predicted tide is referred.[…]Sounding and chart datums are low water datums, that is, they refer to the level of the water surface at low tide. Nonetheless, there are also datums based on high water levels.[…]These two different datums may be included in the broader category of vertical datums, which comprises any plane or surface used as a reference to measure vertical distances (such as depths, drying features, heights on shore, etc.).

2000, Nuno Sergio Marques Antunes, “The Importance of the Tidal Datum in the Definition of Maritime Limits and Boundaries”, in Maritime Briefing, volume 2, number 7, International Boundaries Research Unit, University of Durham, page 5:

Datums are another important map aspect related to projection. A datum provides a base reference for measuring locations on Earth's surface.

2007, Roger F Tomlinson, Thinking about GIS: geographic information system planning for managers:

For horizontal measurements [on the Earth], we fix a mathematical body of Earth in space using a Cartesian coordinate system. After that, a separate coordinate system is created over the surface of this body to generate horizontal coordinates. A mathematical earth body fixed in space makes up the horizontal datum.

2012, Yong-Qi Chen, Yuk-Cheung Lee, chapter 2.3, in Geographical Data Acquisition:

(cartography, surveying, engineering) A fixed reference point or set of reference points which precisely define a system of measurement or a coordinate system.

der

There are two lines on the earth's surface which have been called agonic lines, upon which there is no declination; and where, therefore, the needle is directed along the terrestrial meridian.

1852, Dionysius Lardner, “Terrestrial Magnetism”, in Hand-book of Natural Philosophy and Astronomy, second course (Heat—Common Electricity—Magnetism—Voltaic Electricity), London: Taylor, Walton, and Maberly, Upper Gower Street, and Ivy Lane, Paternoster Row, →OCLC, book II (Magnetism), paragraph 1661, page 172:

It is contended by some that their [cyclones'] general movement is at right angles to the magnetic meridian. If this should prove to be correct, then in all that part of the United States lying west of the Agonic Line, the general direction whence local rain, hail, and snow-storms come, will be as many degrees north of west as the declination of the needle is east of north; and in all that part of the territory lying east of said Agonic Line, they will come from a direction as many degrees south of west as the declination of the needle is west of north.

false northing

(cartography) A value relating to distance north of a standard latitude but with a constant added to make the numbers convenient. For instance, in UTM, the Southern Hemisphere is assigned negative degrees of latitude, but to avoid negative numbers in northings, a constant value of 10,000,000 is added so that negative numbers for northings do not occur.


false easting

(cartography) A value relating to distance east of a standard meridian but with a constant added to make the numbers convenient. For instance, in UTM the value 500,000 is added to the easting from the center of each zone to return a false easting that is never negative (the smallest true easting is approximately -340,000 which is set to false easting of 160,000).

chorochromatic

(cartography, of a map) Having regions of different colours that indicate the distribution of some resource or characteristic.


hectad

Those taxa that show interesting distributions have been mapped and included here, their maps incorporating earlier records made by Laflin and others from 1958 to 1968 which had been based only on localities with hectad grid references.

1998, John Killick, Alan Roy Perry, Stan[ley Reginald John] Woodell, The Flora of Oxfordshire, [Newbury, Berkshire]: Pisces Publications, →ISBN:

This comprises the proportion of each hectad covered by each of ten land-cover types: sea, coastal, arable, broadleaf forest, built-up, conifer forest, improved grassland, open water (rivers, lochs, etc.), semi-natural and upland. The temperature used was taken to be the annual temperature per hectad averaged over the period 1920–1999 […]

2007, Glenn Marion et al., “Towards an Integrated Approach to Stochastic Process-based Modelling: With Applications to Animal Behaviour and Spatio-temporal Spread”, in David L. Swain et al., editors, Redesigning Animal Agriculture: The Challenge of the 21st Century, Wallingford, Oxon., Cambridge, Mass.: CAB International, →ISBN, page 166:

They took figures for the abundance of invasive weeds mapped according to the normal grid unit of the 'hectad', or 10 × 10 km square, and then looked at how abundant these species were mapped at a much finer scale – in 'tetrads', or 2 × 2 km squares, inside these hectads.

Certainly pampas grass made a slow start in the wild in this country [United Kingdom]; despite being grown here since 1848, it was recorded in only 21 hectads (10 x 10km squares) up to 1986, but is now recorded in 425.

2014 December 12, Ken Thompson, “Do plants have a gender? Most plants are hermaphrodite, but not all – and an interesting situation arises when only one sex is imported into the UK [print version: Alien plant species in search of a mate: Although most plants are hermaphrodite, some come in two distinct genders. So how does a single-sex community develop?, page W28]”, in The Daily Telegraph (Weekend), archived from the original on 2016-03-15:

(biology, cartography) A unit of land area, ten by ten (that is, a hundred) square kilometres, often used for assessing how widely distributed particular animals or plants are.

trap street

Trap streets are used as a weapon in corporate warfare, but in certain circumstances, trap streets can be used to fight a different kind of battle. Molly Metropolis certainly understood the importance of trap streets, and as she constructed her map of real train lines and paper ones, she included traps of her own.

2015, Catie Disabato, The Ghost Network, Melville House, →ISBN:

(cartography) A fictitious or inaccurately represented street on a map, inserted as a means of detecting plagiarism.

stereographic projection

en-noun

stereographic projection (plural stereographic projections)

1974 [Prentice-Hall], Richard A. Silverman, Complex Analysis with Applications, Dover, 1984, Unaltered republication, page 19,
Thus we see that stereographic projection establishes a one-to-one correspondence between the extended complex plane and the Riemann sphere.

1991, E. J. F. Primrose (translator), Simeon Ivanov (editor of translation), A. T. Fomenko, A. A. Tuzhilin, Elements of the Geometry and Topology of Minimal Surfaces in Three-Dimensional Space, American Mathematical Society, page 67,
Proposition 2. The stereographic projection π_N:S²→Oxy of the sphere S² onto the xy-plane from the North Pole N preserves the angles between tangent vectors. Thus, the coordinates specified on S²⧵N by the stereographic projection π_N are isothermal.

Before we can recognize such patterns confidently, we need to know whether the stereographic projection faithfully represents the true clustering of directions in space.

2004, Richard J. Lisle, Peter R. Leyshon, Stereographic Projection Techniques for Geologists and Civil Engineers, 2nd edition, Cambridge University Press, page 40:

(projective geometry, complex analysis, cartography) A function that maps a sphere onto a plane; especially, the map generated by projecting each point of the sphere from the sphere's (designated) north pole to a point on the plane tangent to the south pole.
