GIS理论(墨卡托投影、地理坐标系、地面分辨率、地图比例尺、Bing Maps Tile System)

  墨卡托投影(Mercator Projection),又名“等角正轴圆柱投影”,荷兰地图学家墨卡托(Mercator)在1569年拟定,假设地球被围在一个中空的圆柱里,其赤道与圆柱相接触,然后再假想地

球中心有一盏灯,把球面上的图形投影到圆柱体上,再把圆柱体展开,这就是一幅标准纬线为零度(即赤道)的“墨卡托投影”绘制出的世界地图。

一、墨卡托投影坐标系(Mercator Projection

  墨卡托投影以整个世界范围,赤道作为标准纬线,本初子午线作为*经线,两者交点为坐标原点,向东向北为正,向西向南为负。南北极在地图的正下、上方,而东西方向处于地图的正右、左。

  由于Mercator Projection在两极附近是趋于无限值得,因此它并没完整展现了整个世界,地图上最高纬度是85.05度。为了简化计算,我们采用球形映射,而不是椭球体形状。虽然采用Mercator Projection只是为了方便展示地图,需要知道的是,这种映射会给Y轴方向带来0.33%的误差。

earthRadius =6378137

20037508.3427892 = earthRadius * (math.pi - 0)

85.05112877980659 = (math.atan(math.exp(aa / earthRadius))-math.pi/4)*2 * 180 / math.pi

image = 512 * 512

groundResolution(1 level)  = (20037508.3427892 * 2) / 512 = 78271.516964

screendpi = 96

mapScale = groundResolution * 96 / 0.0254 = 295829355.455

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  由于赤道半径为6378137米,则赤道周长为2*PI*r = 20037508.3427892,因此X轴的取值范围:[-20037508.3427892,20037508.3427892]。当纬度φ接近两极,即90°时,Y值趋向于无穷。因此通常把Y轴的取值范围也限定在[-20037508.3427892,20037508.3427892]之间。因此在墨卡托投影坐标系(米)下的坐标范围是:最小为(-20037508.3427892, -20037508.3427892 )到最大 坐标为(20037508.3427892, 20037508.3427892)。

二、地理坐标系(Geographical coordinates

  地理经度的取值范围是[-180,180],纬度不可能到达90°,通过纬度取值范围为[20037508.3427892,20037508.3427892]反计算可得到纬度值为85.05112877980659。因此纬度取值范围是[-85.05112877980659,85.05112877980659]。因此,地理坐标系(经纬度)对应的范围是:最小地理坐标(-180,-85.05112877980659),最大地理坐标(180, 85.05112877980659)。

三、地面分辨率(Ground Resolution

  地面分辨率是以一个像素(pixel)代表的地面尺寸(米)。以微软Bing Maps为例,当Level为1时,图片大小为512*512(4个Tile),那么赤道空间分辨率为:赤道周长/512。其他纬度的空间分辨率则为 纬度圈长度/512,极端的北极则为0。Level为2时,赤道的空间分辨率为 赤道周长/1024,其他纬度为 纬度圈长度1024。很明显,Ground Resolution取决于两个参数,缩放级别Level和纬度latitude ,Level决定像素的多少,latitude决定地面距离的长短。

地面分辨率的公式为,单位:米/像素:

ground resolution = (cos(latitude * pi/180) * 2 * pi * 6378137 meters) / (256 * 2level pixels)

  最低地图放大级别(1级),地图是512 x 512像素。每下一个放大级别,地图的高度和宽度分别乘于2:2级是1024 x 1024像素,3级是2048 x 2048像素,4级是4096 x 4096像素,等等。通常而言,地图的宽度和高度可以由以下式子计算得到:map width = map height = 256 * 2^level pixels

四、地图比例尺(Map Scale

  地图比例尺是指测量相同目标时,地图上距离与实际距离的比例。通过地图分辨率在计算可知由Level可得到图片的像素大小,那么需要把其转换为以米为单位的距离,涉及到DPI(dot per inch),暂时可理解为类似的PPI(pixel per inch),即每英寸代表多少个像素。256 * 2level / DPI 即得到相应的英寸inch,再把英寸inch除以0.0254转换为米。实地距离仍旧是:cos(latitude * pi/180) * 2 * pi * 6378137 meters; 因此比例尺的公式为:

map scale = 256 * 2level / screen dpi / 0.0254 / (cos(latitude * pi/180) * 2 * pi * 6378137)

  比例尺= 1 : (cos(latitude * pi/180) * 2 * pi * 6378137 * screen dpi) / (256 * 2level * 0.0254)

  地面分辨率和地图比例尺之间的关系:

map scale = 1 : ground resolution * screen dpi / 0.0254 meters/inch

五、Bing Maps像素坐标系和地图图片编码

  为了优化地图系统性能,提高地图下载和显示速度,所有地图都被分割成256 x 256像素大小的正方形小块。由于在每个放大级别下的像素数量都不一样,因此地图图片(Tile)的数量也不一样。每个tile都有一个XY坐标值,从左上角的(0, 0)至右下角的(2^level–1, 2^level–1)。例如在3级放大级别下,所有tile的坐标值范围为(0, 0)至(7, 7),如下图:

墨卡托投影、地理坐标系、地面分辨率、地图比例尺、Bing Maps Tile System

  已知一个像素的XY坐标值时,我们很容易得到这个像素所在的Tile的XY坐标值:

tileX = floor(pixelX / 256) tileY = floor(pixelY / 256)

  为了简化索引和存储地图图片,每个tile的二维XY值被转换成一维字串,即四叉树键值(quardtree key,简称quadkey)。每个quadkey独立对应某个放大级别下的一个tile,并且它可以被用作数据库中B-tree索引值。为了将坐标值转换成quadkey,需要将Y和X坐标二进制值交错组合,并转换成4进制值及对应的字符串。例如,假设在放大级别为3时,tile的XY坐标值为(3,5),quadkey计算如下:

tileX = 3 = 011(二进制)

tileY = 5 = 101(二进制)

quadkey = 100111(二进制) = 213(四进制) = “213”

Quadkey还有其他一些有意思的特性。第一,quadkey的长度等于该tile所对应的放大级别;第二,每个tile的quadkey的前几位和其父tile(上一放大级别所对应的tile)的quadkey相同,下图中,tile 2是tile 20至23的父tile,tile 13是tile 130至133的父级:

  最后,quadkey提供的一维索引值通常显示了两个tile在XY坐标系中的相似性。换句话说,两个相邻的tile对应的quadkey非常接近。这对于优化数据库的性能非常重要,因为相邻的tile通常被同时请求显示,因此可以将这些tile存放在相同的磁盘区域中,以减少磁盘的读取次数。

当我们在用arcgis server 构建切片时,我们会发现在缓存生成的conf.xml中有这样的片段:

墨卡托投影、地理坐标系、地面分辨率、地图比例尺、Bing Maps Tile System

在上述片段中<LODInfo>代表了每一级切片的信息,<LevelID>代表切片的级数。

在这里,<Scale>代表比例尺。比例尺是表示图上距离比实地距离缩小的程度,也叫缩尺。公式为:比例尺=图上距离/实地距离。用数字的比例式或分数式表示比例尺的大小。例如地图上1厘米代表实地距离500千米,可写成:1∶50,000,000或写成:1/50,000,000。

<Resolution>,代表分辨率。Resolution 的实际含义代表当前地图范围内,1像素代表多少地图单位(X地图单位/像素),地图单位取决于数据本身的空间参考。

当我们在进行Web API的开发时,经常会碰到根据Resolution来缩放地图的情况。但是实际需求中我们更需要根据Scale来缩放,因此就涉及到Scale和Resolution的转换。

Resolution和Scale的转换算法:

Resolution跟dpi有关,跟地图的单位有关。(dpi代表每英寸的像素数)

Resolution和Scale的转换算法

举例:

案例一:如果地图的坐标单位是米, dpi为96

1英寸= 2.54厘米;

1英寸=96像素;

最终换算的单位是米;

如果当前地图比例尺为1: 125000000,则代表图上1米实地125000000米;

米和像素间的换算公式:

1英寸=0.0254米=96像素

1像素=0.0254/96 米

则根据1:125000000比例尺,图上1像素代表实地距离是125000000*0.0254/96 = 33072.9166666667米。我们这个换算结果和切片的结果略微有0.07米的误差。这个误差产生的原因是英寸换算厘米的参数决定的,server使用的换算参数1英寸约等于0.0254000508米。

案例二:如果地理坐标系是wgs84,地图的单位是度,dpi为96

Server中度和米之间的换算参数:

1度约等于 111194.872221777米

接下来就需要进行度和像素间的换算:

当比例尺为1:64000000米时,相当于1像素 = 64000000*0.0254000508/96 = 16933.3672米

再将米转换为度 16933.3672/111194.872221777 = 0.1522855043731385度

因此当地图单位为度时,近似计算在1:64000000 对应的Resolution为0.1522855043731385度
