Preparing a program for transformation between geographic and plane coordinates of the Syrian Lambert projection


Abstract in English

The main objective of this research is to develop an arithmetic model for transformations between geographic and State Plane Coordinate within the three types of Conformal Syrian Conical projection (tangent, secant and Semiconformal), In order to enable all Specialists and surveyors to carry out direct and reverse transformations of horizontal coordinates of the points without returning to any competent authorities to avoid any administrative and computational complexities.
