Condition #1
The Reference Mercator L 0 is to be mapped equidistantly.
Condition #2
The parallel circle Q 0 which passes the Taylor point ( Q 0 ,L 0 ) is gauged by the Easting coordinate
x = ξ (0 ,l ) to its arc length.
Condition #3
The Easting coordinate x = ξ ( q,l ) should be symmetric with respect to relative isometric
latitude, namely ξ ( −q,l )= ξ ( q,l ).
Condition #4
In contrast, the Northing coordinate y = η ( q,l ) should be symmetric with respect to isometric
longitude, namely η ( q,l )= η ( q,
l ).
While the Reference Meridian L 0 is mapped equidistantly, the parallel circle Q 0 is not .This
result can be seen by inspecting
for the special case q = 0 in Eqs.( 22.78 )
and ( 22.79 )ofTable 22.11 . x = ξ (0 ,l ) ,y = η (0 ,l ) contains nonlinear term of L
{
ξ ( q,l ) ( q,l )
}
L 0 := l .
Obviously the parallel circle Q 0 , q =0,is not mapped onto a straight line in contrast to the
Reference Meridian L 0 ,l = 0 which is mapped equidistantly as a straight line in the chart
{
}
Let us define the equidistant mapping of the Reference Meridian L 0 and the special mapping
of the Reference Parallel Circle Q 0 in more detail.
x = ξ ( q,l ) ,y = η ( q,l )
22-33 The First Boundary Condition or the Equidistant Mapping
of the Reference Meridian
The postulate of an equidistant mapping of the Reference meridian accounts for the computation
of the arc length of the elliptic meridian according to Eq.( 22.80 )ofTable 22.12 . Indeed following
the theory of Taylor polynomials we have to decompose the arc length into the zero order part
