Answer:

The network of the series of vertical and horizontal lines is known as Geographical Coordinates System. There are 2 co-ordinate values for a point latitude and longitude. A geographic coordinate system (GCS) uses a three-dimensional spherical surface to define locations on the earth. A GCS is often incorrectly called a datum, but a datum is only one part of a GCS. A GCS includes an angular unit of measure, a prime meridian, and a datum (based on a spheroid).

Answer:

The Geographic Coordinates System is a network of parallel vertical and horizontal lines. The latitude and longitude of a point have two coordinate values. To designate places in the world, a geographic coordinate system (GCS) makes use of a three-dimensional spherical surface. Although a datum is sometimes used mistakenly to refer to a GCS, it is merely one component. An angular unit of measure, a prime meridian, and a datum are all components of a GCS (based on a spheroid).

Explanation:

geographic coordinate system (GCS):

A spherical or elliptical coordinate system known as the geographic coordinate system (GCS) is used to measure and transmit positions on Earth as latitude and longitude. Of the several spatial reference systems in use, it is the most basic, traditional, and often utilised. It also serves as the foundation for the majority of others. The geographic coordinate system is not a cartesian one since the measurements are angles rather than on a planar surface, even if latitude and longitude create a coordinate tuple similar to one in a cartesian coordinate system.

A complete GCS specification will additionally contain a choice of geodetic datum (including an Earth ellipsoid), as various datums may provide different latitude and longitude values for the same place. Examples of these include those found in the EPSG and ISO 19111 standards.
