What (who) is triangulation - definition


Triangulation (geometry)         
SUBDIVISION OF A PLANAR OBJECT INTO TRIANGLES
Triangulation (advanced geometry)
In geometry, a triangulation is a subdivision of a planar object into triangles, and by extension the subdivision of a higher-dimension geometric object into simplices. Triangulations of a three-dimensional volume would involve subdividing it into tetrahedra packed together.
triangulation         
  • Measuring the height of a building with an [[inclinometer]]
  • Finding the position of a distant object B with the angles observed from points A and C and the baseline b between them
DETERMINING THE LOCATION OF A POINT BY FORMING TRIANGLES TO IT FROM KNOWN POINTS
Triangulated; Triangulate; Triangulating; Radio triangulation; Triangulation in three dimensions
¦ noun
1. (in surveying) the tracing and measurement of a series or network of triangles in order to determine the distances and relative positions of points spread over a territory or region.
2. formation of or division into triangles.

·noun The series or network of triangles into which the face of a country, or any portion of it, is divided in a trigonometrical survey; the operation of measuring the elements necessary to determine the triangles into which the country to be surveyed is supposed to be divided, and thus to fix the positions and distances of the several points connected by them.
