Hi all, I am a novice to geospatialrelated terminology...and going through some literature to understand better.. Could someone please tell difference btwn geographic and projected coordinate system... I mean, I am not able to imagine how I can see an (satellite) image on screen ( flat surface) and say it is in geographic cordinate system (GCS)... as GCS means lat/long and I see it on a flat screen, so should it not be projected if I am seeing it on a flat screen? And if it is projected, then how can it be in GCS ?
My doubt, perhaps , may sound very trivial for all the experts out there but I will really appreciate anything that will aid my understanding. Thanks. -- View this message in context: http://osgeo-org.1560.x6.nabble.com/geographic-vs-projected-coordinate-system-tp5059024.html Sent from the GDAL - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
