    The Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) is a map projection system for assigning coordinates to locations on the surface of the Earth.Like the traditional method of latitude and longitude, it is a horizontal position representation, which means it ignores altitude and treats the earth surface as a perfect ellipsoid.

    The straight-line distance between the central point on the map to any other point is the same as the straight-line 3D distance through the globe between the two points. c. 150 BC: Stereographic: Azimuthal Conformal Hipparchos* Map is infinite in extent with outer hemisphere inflating severely, so it is often used as two hemispheres.

    Coordinates of points on a map are computed as follows: [7] [9] x = 0.8487 R X ( λ − λ 0 ) , y = 1.3523 R Y , {\displaystyle {\begin{aligned}x&=0.8487\,RX(\lambda -\lambda _{0}),\\y&=1.3523\,RY,\end{aligned}}} where R is the radius of the globe at the scale of the map, λ is the longitude of the point to plot, and λ 0 is the central ...

  9. Map seed - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Map_seed

    In video games using procedural world generation, the map seed is a (relatively) short number or text string which is used to procedurally create the game world ("map"). "). This means that while the seed-unique generated map may be many megabytes in size (often generated incrementally and virtually unlimited in potential size), it is possible to reset to the unmodified map, or the unmodified ...
