geodetic control framework
Definition
- A geodetic control framework is an artificial mathematically created mesh of coordinates that surround the earth to allow GIS users to place positional information on their data and cross-reference the data with accuracy. Without such a framework, the necessary manipulations of data gathered by coordinate would be useless—it is necessary to bring a common order to the data collection and manipulation.
