Coordinate Systems

visualization include distortions (namely mapping angles,

term corrections, scale factors and elevation factors).

J-Field

balances the need for flat Earth calculations, for

the user and accurate Geodetic point storage by storing

points internally as Latitude, Longitude and Ellipsoid

Height, (LLH) and transforming coordinates on-the-fly

to any projection desired. To the user, with a State Plane

Coordinate System set for the project, this transformation is

entirely transparent. The user sees State Plane Coordinates,

can export State Plane Coordinates and can import

State Plane Coordinates, while never actually seeing the

internal database coordinates that are LLH. This scheme

simultaneously provides a comfortable user interface and

geodetic purity in the software, unprecedented in previous

field software.

In the early days of precise geodetic positioning several

reference frames were developed - in North America the

most common being the World Geodetic System of 1984

(WGS84) and the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).

Initially these systems were thought to be nearly identical,

but with the refinement of measurements over time, it has

been determined that the difference in the position of the

center of mass of the Earth (or origin) for NAD83 and for

WGS84 is separated by approximately 2 meters with slight

axes rotations and scale difference. WGS84 is the coordinate

system of the Global Positioning System which is maintained

by the US Department of Defense, and the realization (the

actual physical points with coordinate values) is classified,

however the International Earth Rotation and Reference

System Service (IERS) has, by observation, developed the

International Terrestrial Reference Frame (ITRF) which is

understood to be equivalent to WGS84. Based on further

long term observations it has become possible to develop

precise transformation between WGS84 (or more specifically

ITRF2008) and the North American Datum of 1983 (NAD83).

From direct comparisons of ITRF08 and NAD83, geodesists

have developed and continue to refine a 14 parameter

transformation that computes the difference between the

systems in X,Y,Z, rotation of X, rotation of Y, rotation of Z,

and scale. These are seven of the 14 parameters.

WGS84 also differs from NAD83 in that the US National

Geodetic Survey goes to great lengths to keep the NAD83

reference frame relative to the North American Tectonic

Plate. This allows NAD83 coordinates to change very little

over time, based only on improved positioning accuracy

and regional and local ground movements. This requires

velocities of points across North America to be meticulously

generated to relate this seemingly static reference frame

(which is actually moving at a rate of a couple of centimeters

per year) to the center of mass of the Earth.
