If the earth isn't flat than how can grid cities be possible?
>>
Just because it's not a perfect sphere doesn't mean it has to be flat
>>
>>533557112

what do you know about integral calculus and topology?
>>
>>533557112
Because of the scale.
>>
>>533557178
Yes. I lazily tricked my way through Calc II without actually learning anyway, like a true computer scientest.
>>533557154
sounds convenient.

Polar coordinates.

Learn mathematics above simple algebra.

If your head isn't flat, how can lice don't fall from there?

I never thought about that

>perfect grid city
>one diagonal line

wait, they can make infinite city blocks this way!!
What are they doing with all that extra space?

you use a geoid model applied to an ellipsoid with major and minor axes of flattening and use a scale factor to reduce ground to grid when you localize to a site and have determined the elevation above the "mean sea level". the earth is large enough that property lines, city plats, highways, and even the bridge over lake champlain don't have to take curvature of the earth into effect because elevation is measured from the nadirnadir.
