| Description: Units_of_Pixel_Scale_Map is a unit in which pixel scale is measured in a cartographic context. Map pixel scale is the inverse distance represented by one pixel in a digital map, expressed as pixel per unit length in terms of surface distance. For example, 4 pixel/deg image on Venus = 4 pixel/deg image on Mars = 1440x720 pixels. Note: In a cartographic context, degree is interpreted as a surface distance measured in degrees of latitude or longitude. | |||
