What are are the 2 main types of projection?

A Projection is defined as a process which transforms points in a coordinate system of dimension n into points in a coordinate system of dimension less than n.The mapping of 3D objects onto the 2D screen is done by straight projection rays (called projectors) emanating from a center of projection, passing through each point of the object, and intersecting a projection plane to form the projection.Projections can be divided into two basic classes:Perspective or Vanishing Point Method (VPM)Parallel Projection

What are the 10 principles of orthographic projection?

1. Top view is directly over the front view. 2. Side view is inline horizontally with either top view or front view. 3. A line parallel to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane as a line. 4. A surface parallel to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane 5. A line perpendicular to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane as a point. 6. A surface perpendicular to a plane of projection will be projected on that plane as line.


What does the top down view of a solid figure mean?

It is the two-dimensional image of the solid figure when it is viewed from points above the object. In mathematical terms (projective geometry), it is the projection of the figure onto a horizontal plane using the point at infinity as the centre of projection.

What type of projection is made by projecting a globe onto a cylinder?

mercator .


How miles wide is Iraq?

It depends on the geographical projection that you use. With a Robinson projection it is 622.3 miles from the easternmost point to the westernmost point (drawn diagonally across the country). With a Mercator projection it is 733.8 miles. With a Kuwaiti Oil projection it is 676 miles.


Maps can be made by projecting Earth's spherical grid onto a?

That would depend on the type of map. A Mercator projection projects the Earth onto a cylinder, causing distortions at the poles. A "conic" projection projects the Earth onto a cone. And there are special purpose maps that project the Earth onto a plane.


What are the three main types of map projection?

Three types of projection include planar (the globe is projected onto a flat sheet, with only one point of the globe touching the surface), cylindrical (the globe is projected onto a cylinder with the all points along a great circle touching the surface), or conical (the globe is projected onto a cone with two lines of parallel touching the reference surface).
