Over the years since it first appearance, Datums and Map Projections has become a key book for may students and professionals around the world. Its theme - a practical guide to coordinate reference systems - is as important now as when it was first published, probably more so when we consider the ever growing use of satellite navigation systems and the introduction of web mapping services such as Google Earth. While retailing the benefits of the first edition - clear presentation assuming no prior knowledge, a problem-solving approach, practical examples and the combination of GPS-derived data with data from other sources - the rewritten and expanded secondd edition offers very much more:   

- A different structure to give better grouping of common themes

- Greater scope to cover all possible different types of coordinate reference system that are    used in mapping related areas

- More examples and case studies from around the world

- Adoption of the terminology of the ISO 19111 standard

- Use of colour illustrations

This new edition, now with another experienced co-author, will maintain the book's reputation as the ideal guide to the subjects for years to come.
