Over the years since its first appearance, Datums and Map Projections has become a key book for many 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 retaining 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 from other sources – the rewritten and expanded second edition offers very much more:

This new edition, now with a co-author, will maintain the book’s reputation as the ideal guide to the subject for years to come.
