متن کاملThe N-dimensional Map Maker Algorithm
The Map Maker algorithm which converts survey data into geometric data with 2-dimensional Cartesian coordinates has been previously published. Analysis of the performance of this algorithm is continuing. The algorithm is suitable for generating 2D maps and it would be helpful to have this algorithm generalized to generate 3D and higher dimensional coordinates. The trigonometric approach of the ...

متن کاملDominance of Celestial Cues over Landmarks Disproves Map-Like Orientation in Honey Bees
Any goal within the flight range of the bee is characterized by direction and distance from the hive. These two parameters are also the basic in formations transmitted in bee dances. The direc tion has to be calculated by using an individually acquired sun compass, whereas the distance is esti mated by the amount of energy invested during the flight [1], Local and distant landmarks are used ...

As adequate margins were required for binding, practical considerations became aesthetic needs applied by strict formulas. Earlier concepts of pages, such as certain Egyptian hieroglyphs, Roman scrolls. and medieval illumina...
