THE DEVELOPEMENT OF PROJECTION SYSTEMS IN ROMANIA

Published in Scientific Papers. Series "Journal of Young Scientist", Vol. 5
Written by Alexandru BĂLAN

This study puts forward two and a half centuries of development and changing projection systems used in Romania. It will be chronologically exposed a brief history of those, from Cassini’s cylindrical projection (1873) to the system currently used (stereographic projection 1970). The purpose of this paper is to perform a comparative analysis to understand how they work, but also to see whether the current system used in the country is one ideal or can be improved. In this respect, there are considering factors such as the reference ellipsoid, axes, preservation / deflection of angles / distances or point of origin of the system.
