The transformation of map information from a sphere to a flat sheet can be accomplished in many ways. Mapmakers have invented projections that show distances, directions, shapes, or areas as they are on a globe, at least partially.
Affine transformation - A combination of linear transformations (rotation and scaling) followed by translation (shift of position). In geographic data processing, affine transformation is used to register maps of different scales and origins.

Coordinate transformations defined by mapping relations
Usually those relations are not functions (e.g., the same point on the sphere may be represented by several points on the map).

However the transformation is easy to automatize if the data in their metadata header contain transformation parameters to a generally accepted local reference corresponding the site the data describe.
3) Apply the transformation matrix to each pixel on the image to map the old location to the new location. In the case of DEMs, each point has three dimensions while L1A data has two dimensions and involves only planar transformations.
map-to-page transformation The process of positioning and scaling a map on a graphic page. It controls how coverage coordinates are transformed into graphics on the display screen or plotter page.
elastic body transformation
A least-squares computer software program run against a raw digitized data source map to produce a geographically true "X" and "Y" coordinate database referenced to any standard map system.

coordinate transformation Source: GETIS glossary A mathematical operation on coordinates that includes a change of datum.
Cartographers address this problem by using a transformation between spherical and planar geometry.
This can be distinguished from the transformations done within GIS analysis software by the fact that these changes are permanent, more complex and time consuming.
This is an error measurement that most GIS report during geometric transformation of data sets. It is mathematically the spatial equivalent to the standard deviation.
Not formed by a projecting light source, Mercator's projection is a completely mathematical transformation of the earth onto a rectangular map. It was presented in 1569 by Gerhard Kremer, known as Mercator, the Latinized version of his name.
Conversions from various formats and from raster to vector and vector to raster are examples of format transformation.
A number of mathematical transformations can be employed to best depict the three-dimensional surface of the Earth on a flat map. However, these transformations do create some type of distortion artifact.

This generally requires a systematic mathematical transformation of the earth's graticule of lines of longitude and latitude onto a plane.
Basically, Marx argued that it is human nature to transform nature, and he calls this process of transformation "labor" and the capacity to transform nature labor power.
Commoditization implies the transformation of goods and services into a commodity thus becoming an undifferentiated product characterized solely by its price, rather than its quality and features.
Because of the non-rigorous relationship between AGD66/84 and GDA94 and inaccuracies in AGD, the transformation parametres between the two vary across the country.
As example, moving from one projection to another involves a transformation. Transformation tools can introduce systematic errors when moving from one projection to another, that is, effectively changing the data.
