| | Coordinate Pair | A method of encoding the position of a point by measuring its distance from perpendicular reference axes (Cartesian plane). The coordinate pair (x,y), generally in meters, is defined such that x is determined by its horizontal distance from the origin and y is determined by its vertical distance from the origin. |
| | Distance and Bearing | A method of encoding the position of a point by measuring its distance and direction (azimuth angle) from another point. |
| | Row and Column | A method of encoding the position of a point by measuring its distance from perpendicular reference axes (Cartesian plane). The coordinate pair (row,column), generally in pixels, is defined such that the row is determined by its horizontal distance from the origin and column is determined by its vertical distance from the origin. |
