Abstract

This paper mainly introduces the frame of reference for land measurement,transformation between different coordinate systems and basic knowledge of map projection.Meanwhile the paper elaborates the forward and reverse calculation of different types of azimuthal projection,conic projection and cylindrical projection.More effort is given to the forward and reverse calculation of Gauss projection,Lambert projection,Mercator projection,the coordinate system transformation of Beijing54,Xi'an80 and WGS-84,the transformation between geodetic coordinate and spatial right-angle coordinate with the data validation.The paper offers the basic thought of programming with the structure display of the thought.
