The Role of Coordinate Systems, Coordinates and Heights in Horizontal Datum Transformations
This paper reviews the fundamental definitions of geodetic and geocentric coordinate systems, whilst clarifying the distinction between coordinates and coordinate systems. It is then argued that the transformation of coordinates from a local geodetic datum to a geocentric datum should first employ...
