EPSG Geodetic Parameters

EPSG Geodetic Parameters are standardized references that define how geographic coordinates (like latitude and longitude) are measured and mapped onto the Earth’s surface. They include details such as Earth's shape, size, and orientation, ensuring consistent and accurate positioning across maps and spatial data. Think of these parameters like a common set of rules or a blueprint that allows different mapping systems to work together seamlessly. They help translate raw geographic coordinates into meaningful locations on Earth's surface, enabling precise navigation, GIS analysis, and geospatial understanding.
