Over the years since its first appearance, "Datums and Map
Projections" has become a key book for many students and
professionals around the world. Its theme - a practical guide to
coordinate reference systems - is as important now as when it was
first published, probably more so when we consider the ever growing
use of satellite navigation systems and the introduction of web
mapping services such as Google Earth.While retaining the benefits
of the first edition - clear presentation assuming no prior
knowledge, a problem-solving approach, practical examples and the
combination of GPS-derived data with data from other sources - the
rewritten and expanded second edition offers very much more: a
different structure to give a better grouping of common themes;
greater scope to cover all possible different types of coordinate
reference system that are used in mapping and related areas; more
examples and case studies from around the world; adoption of the
terminology of the ISO 19111 standard (Spatial referencing by
coordinates); and use of colour illustrations.This remains a vital
text for students and practitioners in all areas of geomatics -
surveying, remote sensing, GIS, GPS - and much more. Its accessible
nature also makes it suitable for anyone with an interest in the
subject and its applications.
