  8. Latitude and longitude Pittsburgh, PA USA 40 -80 GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Coordinates 8
  9. Lat/Long coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Degrees, minutes, and seconds (DMS) 40° 26′ 2″ N latitude -80° 0′ 58″ W longitude Decimal degrees (DD) 1 degree = 60 minutes 1 minute = 60 seconds 40° 26′ 2″ = 40 + (26 / 60) + (2 / 3600) = 40 + .43333 + .00055 = 40.434° 9
  10. Lat/long coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Translated to distance World circumference through the poles is 24,859.82 mi, so for latitude: 1° = 24,859.82 / 360 = 69.1 mi 1′ = 24,859.82 / (360 * 60) = 1.15 mi 1″ = 24,859.82 * 5,280 / (360 * 3,600) = 101 ft Length of the equator is 24,901.55 mi 10
  11. GCS example (census tracts) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 11
  12. Rectangular coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook UTM (universal transverse Mercator) US military State plane Local US governments 12
  13. UTM coordinates example GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Developed by US Army Corps of Engineers (1940s) Covers world, 80°S to 80°N Metric coordinates 60 tuned transverse Mercator projections for longitude zones, 6° wide 13
  14. State plane coordinates GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Established by the US Coast and Geodetic Survey in the 1930s All positive coordinates in feet or meters Used by local US governments Originally North American Datum (NAD 1927) More recently NAD 1983 and 1983 HARN (High Accuracy Reference Network) 14
  15. State plane zones GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 125 zones At least one for each state Cannot join zones to make larger regions Follow state and county boundaries Each zone has its own tuned projection Lambert conformal projection for zones with eastwest orientation Transverse Mercator projection for zones with northsouth orientation 15
  16. State plane zones GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 16
  17. State plane coordinates example GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook State plane NAD 1983, Pennsylvania South, Feet 17
  18. X,y coordinate tips US Census Geographic coordinate system (GCS) City of Pittsburgh State plane coordinate system GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Always assign coordinates according to the agency 18
  19. X,y coordinate examples US Census Geographic coordinates (GCS) Block groups City of Pittsburgh State plane coordinates Sidewalks GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 19
  20. Map document tip GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook The first layer added in ArcMap sets the x,y coordinate system for the data frame Additional layers will overlay properly as long as the correct coordinate system is assigned to feature class For example, GCS to US Census files, state plane to local government files Known as .prj files 20
  21. Map document tip GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Example: Sidewalks added first (state plane), but block groups match even though they are in geographic coordinate system (GCS) projection. 21
  22. Lecture 5 Map projections
  23. Map projections GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Way to represent the curved surface of the earth on the flat surface of a map Hundreds of map projections Each map projection has advantages and disadvantages: Depends on the scale of the map Depends on map’s purpose Different projections good for small areas, areas with a large east–west extent, or areas with a large north–south extent 23
  24. Map projections Flatten half of a rubber ball? No. Instead, features are projected onto one of three “developable” surfaces. Planar: a map projection resulting from the conceptual projection of the earth onto a tangent or secant plane Cylindrical: a map projection where the earth’s surface is projected onto a tangent or secant cylinder, which is then cut lengthwise and laid flat Conic: a map projection where the earth’s surface is projected onto a tangent or secant cone, which is then cut from apex to base and laid flat http://www.nationalatlas.gov/articles/mapping/a_projections.html#two GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 24
  25. Conformal projection Example: Mercator projection (1569) used for nautical purposes (constant courses are straight lines) GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Cylindrical projection Parallels and meridians at right angles Angles and shapes of small objects preserved (at every point, east–west scale same as north–south scale) The size/shape/area of large objects distorted (scale approaches infinity at the poles) Seldom used for world maps 25
  26. Equivalent projection Example: Albers Equal Area standard projection for US Geological Survey, US Census Bureau GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Conic projection Preserves accurate area Scale and shape are not preserved 26
  27. Compromise projections Example:Robinson projection (1961) good compromise projection for viewing entire world used by Rand McNally and the National Geographic Society GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook Neither equivalent nor conformal Meridians curve gently, avoiding extremes. Doesn’t preserve properties, but “looks right” 27
  28. When projection is important Small-scale maps Comparing shapes, areas, distances, or directions of map features Natural appearance desired New York New York Los Angeles Los Angeles Los Angeles Projection: Albers Equal AreaDistance: 2,455.03 miles Projection: MercatorDistance: 3,124.67 miles Actual distance: 2,451 miles GIS TUTORIAL 1 - Basic Workbook 28
