सामान्य गलतियां जिनसे बचना है

  • Using wrong UTM zone (zones overlap; wrong zone = large error)
  • Not specifying ellipsoid/datum (WGS84 standard)

अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले प्रश्न

When do you use each coordinate system?

Geographic (lat/lon): mapping, GPS. UTM: engineering, accurate distance/area. Projection choice matters.

Why do projections distort?

Can't flatten sphere without distortion. Different projections minimize different distortions (area, shape, distance).
