What two coordinates is the Global Positioning System?
The two map coordinates or geodetic coordinates are latitude and longitude measured on the surface of the Earth's globe-shaped surface or at mean sea level or at the magnetic geoid.
What agency provides mapping charting and all geodetic support for the US Armed Forces?
NGA
With the aid of diagram distinquish in detail the difference between astronomical azimuth and geodetic azimuth?
nothing =)
What method is used to measure the lines used to measure the lines of the longitude and latitude to find the exact location?
The method used to measure lines of longitude and latitude to determine exact location is called geodetic surveying. It involves the use of specialized instruments such as theodolites and GPS receivers to accurately measure angles and distances on the Earth's surface. These measurements are then used to calculate the precise coordinates of a particular location.
What is the latitude and the longitude of Barcelona Spain?
There is no such thing as "absolute" latitude and longitude coordinates. Firstly coordinates are for a point, a very tiny little thing. There will be hundreds of coordinates inside a city's boundaries. Secondly, coordinates are associated with what is called a "datum". A datum is a mathamatical description of the surface of the earth which is very irregular, not a perfect sphere. There are more than a 100 different datums. There are as many distinct sets of coordinates as there are datums. You did not provide a datum so I picked a convenient one. The latitude and longitude for the center of the La Plaza de las Glorias Catalanas in Barcelona are N41.4034, E2.18688 using World Geodetic System 1984 datum, commonly referred to as WGS84. If you had not requested "absolute" information you would not have received such a long answer. Beware what you ask for, you just might get it!
What is the a coordinate on the gps of latitude and logitude called?
I have heard them called Map Coordinates and Geodetic Coordinates.

When was Rudi Geodetic Point created?
Rudi Geodetic Point was created in 2006.
What are some engineering career that starts with the letter g?
geodetic
When was U.S National Geodetic Survey created?
U.S. National Geodetic Survey was created in 1807.
What is geodetic azimuth?
Geodetic azimuth is when you measure in a Brunton compass from 0 to 360 degrees clockwise.
What has replaced the use of stars in geodetic measurements?
The use of stars in geodetic measurements has been replaced by GPS satellites.
What are the coordinates of Bilbao?
Using WGS 84 Datum Bilbao is located at 43°15′25″N 2°55′25″W. A Datum is a cartographer/mathematical description of the surface of the earth. There are many Datums and each have unique coordinates. WGS 84 stands for World Geodetic Survey 1984 which is a popular Datum.
What has the author Emery I Balazs written?
Emery I. Balazs has written: 'Corrections applied by the National Geodetic Survey to precise leveling observations' -- subject(s): Leveling, National Geodetic Survey (U.S.), National Geodetic Survey (U.S.).
What is geodetic surveyingwhat?
Geodetic surveying measures large areas of land, using applied mathematics to make corrections by accounting for the roundness of the earth.
What is a grid system for Canada?
