Definition von conformally im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch
- With regard to a conformality
- In a conformal manner
- conformal
- Describing a map projection which has the property of preserving relative angles over small scales (except at a limited number of distinct points). On such map projections the scale depends only location but not direction. Also referred to as orthomorphic
- conformal
- (of a map or a mathematical mapping) preserving the correct angles between directions within small areas (though distorting distances)
- conformal
- (Mathematics) Designating or specifying a mapping of a surface or region upon another surface so that all angles between intersecting curves remain unchanged
- conformal
- Of or relating to a map projection in which small areas are rendered with true shape
- conformal
- The shape of the continents and directions (north, south, east, west) are correct and the size is distorted Navigators and surveyors use conformal maps because they need true shape and direction
- conformal
- A map projection that has the property of true shape (conformality) See Chapter 6
- conformal
- A map projection is conformal, orthomorphic or equiangular when at any point the scale is the same in every direction, and the shapes of small areas are preserved An example is, the Lambert Conformal Conic Projection
- conformal
- Angle-preserving or angle-defining The Mercator map is a conformal map of the Earth because angles are true A conformal structure on a manifold defines angles between curves segments on the manifold but not their lengths
- conformal
- a map or map projection that has the property of conformality, or true shape conformality - the property of a map projection to represent true shape, wherein a projection preserves the shape of any small geographical area This is accomplished by exact transformation of angles around points
- conformal
- Describing something that conforms, especially that matches the shape of something
