PZ-90
PZ-90 (short for ''Parametry Zemli 1990 goda'', in russian: Параметры Земли 1990 года) is a geodetic datum defined for use in the GLONASS GLONASS (russian: ГЛОНАСС, label=none, ; rus, links=no, Глобальная навигационная спутниковая система, r=Global'naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema, t=Global Navigation Satellite System) is ... system. Revisions PZ-90.02 Creation date - 2005; Epoch - 2002.0; Absolute positional accuracy - from 0.3 to 0.5 m; Relative positional accuracy - from 2 to 3 cm PZ-90.11 Creation date - 2011; Epoch - 2010.0; Absolute positional accuracy - 5 cm; Relative positional accuracy - from 0.5 to 1 cm PZ-90.11 is described as "closest to ITRF2000" by the ESA's Navipedia. It converts to ITRF2008 with only a shift vector; no rotation or scaling is needed.{{cite web , title=Reference Frames in GNSS , url=https://gssc.esa.int/navipedia/index.php/Reference_Frames_in_GNSS , website ...

GLONASS
GLONASS (russian: ГЛОНАСС, label=none, ; rus, links=no, Глобальная навигационная спутниковая система, r=Global'naya Navigatsionnaya Sputnikovaya Sistema, t=Global Navigation Satellite System) is a Russian satellite navigation system operating as part of a radionavigation-satellite service. It provides an alternative to Global Positioning System (GPS) and is the second navigational system in operation with global coverage and of comparable precision. Satellite navigation devices supporting both GPS and GLONASS have more satellites available, meaning positions can be fixed more quickly and accurately, especially in built-up areas where buildings may obscure the view to some satellites. GLONASS supplementation of GPS systems also improves positioning in high latitudes (north or south). Development of GLONASS began in the Soviet Union in 1976. Beginning on 12 October 1982, numerous rocket launches added satellites to the system, unti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Datum (geodesy)
A geodetic datum or geodetic system (also: geodetic reference datum, geodetic reference system, or geodetic reference frame) is a global datum reference or reference frame for precisely representing the position of locations on Earth or other planetary bodies by means of ''geodetic coordinates''. DatumsThe plural is not "data" in this case are crucial to any technology or technique based on spatial location, including geodesy, navigation, surveying, geographic information systems, remote sensing, and cartography. A horizontal datum is used to measure a location across the Earth's surface, in latitude and longitude or another coordinate system; a ''vertical datum'' is used to measure the elevation or depth relative to a standard origin, such as mean sea level (MSL). Since the rise of the global positioning system (GPS), the ellipsoid and datum WGS 84 it uses has supplanted most others in many applications. The WGS 84 is intended for global use, unlike most earlier datums. Before G ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
