XYZ Tiles coordinate numbers. Properties of tiled web maps that require convention or standards include the size of tiles, the numbering of zoom levels, the projection to use, the way individual tiles are numbered or otherwise identified, and the method for requesting them. Most tiled web maps follow certain Google Maps conventions:
The Rendering options group has radio buttons for displaying latitude/longitude in either degrees, minutes, seconds, or decimal degrees. Click OK to save your options choices. Use the navigation controls to find the object or location you seek in a satellite photo, road map, or hybrid display.
Formulas for the Web Mercator are fundamentally the same as for the standard spherical Mercator, but before applying zoom, the "world coordinates" are adjusted such that the upper left corner is (0, 0) and the lower right corner is ( , ): [7] = ⌊ (+) ⌋ = ⌊ ( [ (+)]) ⌋ where is the longitude in radians and is geodetic latitude in radians.
It was developed at Google's Zürich engineering office, [2] and released late October 2014. [3] Location codes created by the OLC system are referred to as " plus codes ". Open Location Code is a way of encoding location into a form that is easier to use than showing coordinates in the usual form of latitude and longitude .
Center the screen on your location by double-clicking on it, then use the View in Google Maps button at the top (Google Earth 4.1 and newer). This will open Google Maps within Google Earth. You can see the center coordinates in decimal format in the address bar, but unfortunately you cannot copy them directly. To do so, use the button Open this ...
The OpenLayers JavaScript library supports TMS natively, while the Google Maps API allows URL templating, which makes support possible for developers. TileCache is one of the most popular supporting servers, while other servers like mod tile and TileLite focus on the de facto OpenStreetMap standard.
Degrees, minutes and seconds, when used, must each be separated by a pipe ("|"). Map datum must be WGS84 if possible (except for off-Earth bodies). Avoid excessive precision (0.0001° is <11 m, 1″ is <31 m). Maintain consistency of decimal places or minutes/seconds between latitude and longitude. Latitude (N/S) must appear before longitude (E/W).
