The Amazon River was placed there for the purpose of draining water
from thousands of streams and rivers all across South America, and
of providing habitat for the thousands of species of insects, birds,
fish, lizards, and plants that live in or near it.

Recently, since the advent of homo humanus ... a unique species 
that's always looking for a way to "use" nature ... the river has begun
to be used as a source of water for farming and drinking, as an easy
source of protein, and as a transportation route.

Describe the difference between Geographic Coordinate Systems and Projected Coordinate Systems.
monitta

Answer:

A projected coordinate system is defined on a flat two-dimensional surface. Unlike a geographic coordinate system, a projected coordinate system has constant lengths, angles and areas in both dimensions.

Explanation:

Locations on earth are often expressed in geographic degrees (latitude and longitude). But when you are doing a topographic survey you need to speak in meters and feet. This is because, depending on the application, it uses a geographic or projected coordinate system.

A <u>geographic coordinate system</u> (GCS) is a coordinate system that uses a three-dimensional spherical surface (ellipsoid) to define locations on the earth. A common choice of coordinates is latitude and longitude.

In a <u>projected coordinate system</u> (PCS), you project the geographic coordinate that you have measured, for example, in a cylinder that easily unfolds over a two-dimensional surface (the map).
