The science and technology of spatial infor­mation management, including the acquisition, storage, analysis and processing, display and dis­semination of geo-referenced information.

Ilmu pengetahuan dan teknologi tentang manajemen informasi spasial, termasuk akuisisi, penyimpanan, analisis dan proses, penampakan dan diseminasi informasi geo-referensi

A branch of both geography and geology that deals with the form of the earth, the general configuration of its surface, and the changes that take place in the evolution of land forms.

An earth satellite moving eastward in an equatorial, circular orbit at an alti­tude (approximately 35,900 kilometers) such that its period of revolution is exactly equal to (synchronous with) the rotational period of the earth. Such a satellite will remain fixed over a point on the earth's equator. Although geostationary satellites are fre­quently called geosynchronous or synchronous satelli­tes, the orbit of an eastward moving syn­chronous satellite must be equatorial if the satellite is to remain fixed over a point on the equator. Otherwise, the satellite moves daily in a figure-eight pattern relative to the earth. Also called fixed satellite.

Satelit bumi yang bergerak ke timur khatulistiwa, dengan orbit melingkar pada ketinggian 35,900 kilometer. Periode revolusinya sama persis dengan periode rotasi bumi. Satelit tersebut berposisi tetap pada titik khatulistiwa. Meskipun satelit ini seringkali disebut geosinkronisasi atau satelit sinkronisasi, orbit timur yang bergerak secara singkron pasti khatulistiwa jika satelit tetap stabil pada titik tertentu di khatulistiwa. Jika tidak, satelit bergerak dengan delapan pola relative terhadap bumi. Disebut juga satelit tetap

A device consisting of two rings pivoted at right angles to each other, for supporting anything, such as an instrument, in such a manner that it will remain essentially horizontal when the support tilts. Also called cardanic suspension.

Alat yang terdiri dari dua cincin yang berporos pada sudut satu sama lain, untuk menopang sesuatu, seperti instrument, sedemikian rupa sehingga tetapi dalam posisi horizontal ketika penopangnya miring. Lihat juga suspensi Cardanic.

A mass of SNOW and ICE continuously moving from higher to lower GROUND or, if afloat, continu­ous­ly spread­ing. The principal forms of glaciers are: ICE SHEETS, ICE SHELVES, ICE CAPS, ICE PIEDMONTS, and various types of mountain glaciers.

Masa SALJU dan ES yang terus menerus bergerak dari PERMUKAAN yang tinggi ke rendah, atau jika mengapung, akan terus menyebar. Bentuk dasar dari glacier adalah LEMBAR ES, RAK ES, TOPI ES, PIEDMONT ES, dan berbagai jenis gletser gunung

A satellite-based NAVIGATION system designed to provide highly accurate POSITION and velocity information in three dimensions and precise time and time interval on a global basis continuously. GPS is operated by the United States Government. GPS to which differential corrections have been applied is known as DIFFERENTIAL GPS (DGPS). See also GLOBAL NAVIGATION SATELLITE SYSTEM.

Sistem navigasi satelit yang memberikan informasi yang akurat tentang posisi dan kecepatan dalam tiga demensi dan waktu serta interval waktu yang presisi secara global dan terus menerus. GPS dioperasikan oleh pemerintah Amerika Serikat. GPS dimana memiliki koreksi diferensial dikenal dengan istilah DIFERENSIAL GPS (DGPS). Lihat juga SISTEM SATELIT NAVIGASI GLOBAL.
