NASA World Wind: Maps: Open source 3D interactive world viewer. See also: online version. Licensing: NOSA. Bing Maps: Maps: Provides geographical coordinates of a location when a "Pushpin" has ...

  3. Map matching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_matching

    Map matching is the problem of how to match recorded geographic coordinates to a logical model of the real world, typically using some form of Geographic Information System. The most common approach is to take recorded, serial location points (e.g. from GPS ) and relate them to edges in an existing street graph (network), usually in a sorted ...

  4. Comparison of free off-line satellite navigation software

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_free_off...

    Very basic programs like this may not be suitable for road navigation in cars, but serve their purpose for navigation while walking or trekking, and for use at sea. To determine the GPS coordinates of a destination, one can use sites such as GPScoordinates.eu and GPS visualizer. Some software presented here is free, but maps may need to be paid ...

  5. Reverse geocoding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_geocoding

    Reverse geocoding is the process of converting a location as described by geographic coordinates (latitude, longitude) to a human-readable address or place name. It is the opposite of forward geocoding (often referred to as address geocoding or simply "geocoding"), hence the term reverse.

  6. Google Maps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Maps

    Google Maps' location tracking is regarded by some as a threat to users' privacy, with Dylan Tweney of VentureBeat writing in August 2014 that "Google is probably logging your location, step by step, via Google Maps", and linked users to Google's location history map, which "lets you see the path you've traced for any given day that your ...

  7. Geographic coordinate conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geographic_coordinate...

    In geodesy, geographic coordinate conversion is defined as translation among different coordinate formats or map projections all referenced to the same geodetic datum. [1] A geographic coordinate transformation is a translation among different geodetic datums. Both geographic coordinate conversion and transformation will be considered in this ...

  8. Georeferencing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Georeferencing

    Graphical view of the affine transformation. The registration of an image to a geographic space is essentially the transformation from an input coordinate system (the inherent coordinates of pixels in the images based on row and column number) to an output coordinate system, a spatial reference system of the user's choice, such as the geographic coordinate system or a particular Universal ...

    The GPS receiver then utilizes position to provide GPS coordinates, or exact points of latitudinal and longitudinal direction from GPS satellites. The points, or coordinates, output an accurate range between approximately "10-20 meters" of the actual location. The beginning point, entered via GPS coordinates, and the ending point, (address or ...
