name="updates"></a></h2> <p> Suggestions for website improvements may be made by emailing <a href="mailto:tgaither@usgs.gov ">Tenielle Gaither</a>. </p> <h2>Control Networks</h2> <p>A control network is made up of a network of control points. A control point is a location on a planet or satellite that is used as a reference. A grouping of control points in a control network allow us to accurately calculate the location of a feature on a planet or satellite in relation to the network of control points that are contained in the control network. </p> <p>There can be numerous control networks for a planetary body because as more accurate data are obtained, the location of the control points change, and all of the features that have their locations defined in relation to a particular control network must be updated to reflect their new location in relation to the new data. </p> <h2>Coordinate Systems<a name="coordinatsystems"></a></h2> <p>For each planetary body the IAU has designated one or more coordinate systems. You can view a list of these accepted coordinate systems <a href="../TargetCoordinates">here</a>. This website supports conversions between coordinate systems to allow for retrieval of the data in the system most useful to the user.</p> <h4>Planetographic and Planetocentric Latitudes</h4> <p> All planetary bodies currently in the nomenclature database, except for Mars, are defined as a sphere even if the body is not very spherical. For the triaxial bodies, the IAU defines a best-fit sphere to approximate the shape for cartographic applications. One benefit for using a sphere is that a planetocentric and planetographic defined latitude will be the same. However, for Mars, which is defined as an ellipse (biaxial), the two latitude systems are indeed different. </p> <p> A planetocentric latitude is defined as the angle between the equatorial plane and a line from the center of the body. The planetographic latitude is the angle between the equatorial plane and a line that is normal to the body. Both latitudes are equivalent on a spherical model, but they can differ by quite a bit on an ellipsoid. For further reading, see the section of the Isis Workshop page called <a href="http://isis.astrogeology.usgs.gov/IsisWorkshop/index.php/Learning_About_Map_Projections#Latitude_Type" target="_new">Latitude Type</a>. </p> <a name="downloads"></a> <h2>Downloading Data</h2> <h3>CSV - Comma Separated Values</h3> <p> The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comma-separated_values" target="_new">CSV</a> format can be opened by most spreadsheet programs (eg: excel). Diacritic characters are encoded in UTF-8, you may need to manually set the character encoding in your spreadsheet program to get them to display correctly. </p> <h3>TSV - Tab Separated Values</h3> <p> Very similar to the CSV format, only using the tab character to separate the columns. Diacritic characters are encoded in UTF-8, you may need to manually set the character encoding in your spreadsheet program to get them to display correctly. </p> <h3>XML - Extensible Markup Language</h3> <p> The XML format is best for programatically interacting with the data. One of the easier ways to process xml documents is with an <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT" target="_new">XSLT</a> which will transform an xml document into nearly any other text based format. </p> <h3>KML - Keyhole Markup Language</h3> <p>The <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyhole_Markup_Language">KML</a> format is an <a href="http://www.opengeospatial.org/" target="_new" title="Open Geospatial Consortium">OGC</a> standard mainly used by Google Earth for graphically displaying geospatial information on a map. The latitudes and longitudes for this format are only in the -180 to 180, positive east, planetocentric coordinate system.</p> <h3>Shapefile</h3> <p> The Shapefile format, developed and regulated by <a href="http://www.esri.com/" target="_new">ESRI</a>, is a popular vector-based geospatial format for GIS software. A shapefile is used to spatially describe various vector geometries including points, polylines (lines), and polygons. Each feature also contains a table entry to store the nomenclature attributes. Due to field width restrictions in this format, field names for the nomenclature database have been shortened. For more information, please see <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapefile" target="_new">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shapefile</a> </p> <br> <!-- <h2><a href="http://astrodocs.wr.usgs.gov/index.php/Nomenclature:Frequently_Asked_Questions" target="_new">More Information about the website</a></h2> --> </main> </div> </div> </div> <script> $("a").addClass("usa-link"); var _gaq = _gaq || []; _gaq.push(['_setAccount', 'UA-28905790-1']); _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']); (function() { var ga = document.createElement('script'); ga.type = 'text/javascript'; ga.async = true; ga.src = ('https:' == document.location.protocol ?
