The first chapters are of foundational type. We introduce the mapping from a left Riemann manifold to a right one specified as conformal, equiaerial and equidistant, perspective and geodetic. In particular, the mapping from a Riemann manifold to a Euclidean manifold ("plane") and the design of various coordinate systems are reviewed . A speciality is the treatment of surfaces of Gaussian curvature zero. The largest part is devoted to the mapping the sphere and the ellipsoid-of-revolution to tangential plane, cylinder and cone (pseudo-cone) using the polar aspect, transverse as well as oblique aspect. Various Geodetic Mappings as well as the Datum Problem are reviewed. In the first extension we introduce optimal map projections by variational calculus for the sphere, respectively the ellipsoid generating harmonic maps. The second extension reviews alternative maps for structures , namely torus (pneu), hyperboloid (cooling tower), paraboloid (parabolic mirror), onion shape (church tower) as well as clothoid (Hight Speed Railways) used in Project Surveying. Third, we present t | 出版日期 | Book 2014Latest edition | 关键词 | Cartography; ellipsoid; hyperboloid; map projections; paraboloid; sphere; surfaces of type plane | 版次 | 2 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-36494-5 | isbn_softcover | 978-3-662-51746-8 | isbn_ebook | 978-3-642-36494-5 | copyright | Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2014 |
