Geodetic References: Coordinate Conversions and Global Systems

This lecture covers coordinate conversions, datum changes, and similarity transformations in geodetic references. It explains the evolution of reference systems like CH1903 and satellite tracking. It also delves into global kinematics, local kinematics, and the Swiss geodetic system. The lecture discusses reference ellipsoids, Cartesian coordinate systems, and the compatibility with ETRS89. It details the ITRF network, the EUREF Permanent Tracking Network, and the transition from the MNO3 frame to the MN95 frame. Additionally, it explores the CH1903+ system, the national surveying system, and the CHENYX06 national network of triangles.
