• Definitions:
• A set of parameters and control points used to accurately define the three-dimensional shape of the Earth (eg, as a spheroid). ...
• a fixed reference point on an archaeological site from which measurements are taken.
• 1. Any numerical or geometrical quantity or set of such quantities which may serve as a reference or base for other quantities. 2. See chart datum
• a reference system for surveying which involves using a plane, level, line, etc., from which to calculate heights and depths. A vertical datum is a level surface to which heights are referred. The horizontal datum is used as a reference for position.
• symbol that describes an aspect of an entitiy or event in the real world. Statistical datatypes: dead key
• A set of constants specifying the coordinate system used for geodetic control. A complete geodetic datum provides, as a minimum, definition for orientation, scale and dimensions for the reference ellipsoid. ...
• A datum is a geodetic reference system that specifies the size and shape of the earth, and the base point from which the latitude and longitude of all other points on the earth's surface are referenced.
• The theoretically-exact point, axis or plane that is the origin from which the location of geometric characteristics of features of a part are established.
• a single fact, as in: We based our measurements on the datum of the boiling point of water. (Note: rarely used outside scientific literature)
• For marine applications, a base elevation used as a reference from which to reckon heights or depths. It is called a tidal datum when defined in terms of a certain phase of the tide. ...
• All ground surface elevations are measured from a certain point called a datum. Once TSARP is completed all of the elevation data for Harris County will be on NAVD 1988 2001 Adjustment Datum.
• is an elevation above mean sea level to which all gage height readings are referenced.
• Geographical reference frame, horizontal plane based on a vertical benchmark (such as mean sea level)
• a location from which all measurements on a site are made; a reference point tied to local survey maps.
• An application-specific data structure associated with a Clause that is the thing that the Clause describes.
• A datum is a model of the surface of the earth based on a surveyed network of physical points. In the US, the most common is the North American Datum of 1927 (NAD27). This datum is used on USGS and USDAFS (USDA Forest Service) maps along with many other government and private maps. ...
• Description of the Coordinate Reference System (CRS) applicable to the coordinate information provided for the survey location. These are derived from the Coordinate System Code, so they do not require verification.
• A ?datumÓ (singular of data) may be considered to be a single fact or item of evidence. To be informative, a datum needs one or more additional data of different sorts to provide context. Thus it can be said that a message (potential information) needs at least two data. ...
• An Earth-shape (ellipsoid) reference model upon which points on the Earth's surface are calculated. For instance, NAD27 is common for UTM 1:24000 DRGs and 30m and 10m DEMs, though corresponding DOQs may be in a different datum, such as NAD83. ...
• "1. Any point, line, or surface used as a reference for a measurement of another quantity. 2. A model of the earth used for geodetic calculations" (Bonham-Carter, 1994, p. 356).
• A point, line, surface or set of quantities used as a reference upon which measurements are based. (source -Survey Services 2003)
• The basis for relating river stage to mean sea level. (datum + stage = elevation in feet above mean sea level)
• A reference system for vertical and horizontal positions. Different datums have different positions for the physical location of their origins, thus different datums will represent coordinates in different positions. Differences can be as much as a mile. ...
• Something used as the basis for reasoning, inference, calculating, or measuring. A reference point or origin for mapping.
• (pl. datums) A model of the earth's surface that is comprised of a network of physical points that serves as a reference for maps, for both horizontal and vertical data. In the US early topographic maps were based on the North American Datum 1927 (NAD27). ...
• an item of factual information derived from measurement or research
• A datum (plural datums or data) is a reference from which measurements are made. In surveying and geodesy, a datum is a reference point on the earth's surface against which position measurements are made, and an associated model of the shape of the earth for computing positions. ...
