What does TM stand for in measurment?

In measurements, "TM" typically stands for "Transverse Mercator," which is a type of map projection used for representing the Earth's surface. This projection is particularly useful for large-scale mapping because it minimizes distortion in a specific region. The Transverse Mercator projection is commonly employed in topographic maps and various geographic information systems (GIS).


How are maps useful?

mercator projection are mostly used by navigator because all meridians appears as astraiht line


What are the disadvantage of a mercator projection?

there is distortion at the north and south poles. The land sizes of the continents closest to the equator are smaller than they really are. But Mercator maps are very useful for sailors or pilots for finding direction.

What variant of Mercator projection does Google Maps use?

Google Maps is based on a close variant of the Mercator projection. Google Maps uses the spherical Mercator, but the coordinates on Google Maps are the GPS coordinates based on the WGS 84 datum. Also, because Mercator projects the poles at infinity, Google Maps cannot show the poles so instead it cuts off coverage at 85.051125° north and south.
