cartesian coordinate transformations  

Definición

  • When the coordinates of certain points have been determined in a coordinate system, there is often the need to know the coordinates of the points in another coordinate system. The calculation of the coordinates of the points in the second system based on the coordinates in the first system and the relationship between the two coordinate systems is referred to as coordinate transformation.
