Abstract

Coordinate transformation can be viewed as an important procedure which aims at converting data from one reference system to another using a set of control points measured in both systems. It is also the mathematical procedure to establish a geometrical relationship between a source coordinate system (local or image coordinate system) and a target coordinate system (world or object coordinate system). This procedure estimates the transformation parameters using a set of control points measured in the two coordinate systems. In this research the transformation parameters for Minna UTM zone 32 and Web Mercator or UTM World Wide were developed using a fit-for-purpose approach whereby coordinates in UTM Minna zone 32 are transformed to the Web Mercator and vice versa
