At that time the chief method of determining longitude was by using the reported times of lunar eclipses in different countries. One of the earliest known descriptions of standard time in India appeared in the 4th century CE astronomical treatise Surya Siddhanta. Postulating a spherical earth, the book described the th... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Ptolemy's Geographia was first printed with maps at Bologna in 1477, and many early globes in the 16th century followed his lead. But there was still a hope that a "natural" basis for a prime meridian existed. Christopher Columbus reported (1493) that the compass pointed due north somewhere in mid-Atlantic, and this fa... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
The Tordesillas line was eventually settled at 370 leagues (2,193 kilometers, 1,362 statute miles, or 1,184 nautical miles) west of Cape Verde. This is shown in the copies of Spain's Padron Real made by Diogo Ribeiro in 1527 and 1529. São Miguel Island (25.5°W) in the Azores was still used for the same reason as late a... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
In 1541, Mercator produced his famous 41 cm terrestrial globe and drew his prime meridian precisely through Fuerteventura (14°1'W) in the Canaries. His later maps used the Azores, following the magnetic hypothesis. But by the time that Ortelius produced the first modern atlas in 1570, other islands such as Cape Verde w... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
In his atlas longitudes were counted from 0° to 360°, not 180°W to 180°E as is usual today. This practice was followed by navigators well into the 18th century. In 1634, Cardinal Richelieu used the westernmost island of the Canaries, El Hierro, 19° 55' west of Paris, as the choice of meridian. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
The geographer Delisle decided to round this off to 20°, so that it simply became the meridian of Paris disguised.In the early 18th century the battle was on to improve the determination of longitude at sea, leading to the development of the marine chronometer by John Harrison. But it was the development of accurate st... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
"Maskelyne's tables not only made the lunar method practicable, they also made the Greenwich meridian the universal reference point. Even the French translations of the Nautical Almanac retained Maskelyne's calculations from Greenwich – in spite of the fact that every other table in the Connaissance des Temps considere... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
The French argued for a neutral line, mentioning the Azores and the Bering Strait, but eventually abstained and continued to use the Paris meridian until 1911. The current international standard Prime Meridian is the IERS Reference Meridian. The International Hydrographic Organization adopted an early version of the IR... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Since 1984, the international standard for the Earth's prime meridian is the IERS Reference Meridian. Between 1884 and 1984, the meridian of Greenwich was the world standard. These meridians are physically very close to each other. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
In October 1884 the Greenwich Meridian was selected by delegates (forty-one delegates representing twenty-five nations) to the International Meridian Conference held in Washington, D.C., United States to be the common zero of longitude and standard of time reckoning throughout the world.The position of the historic pri... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
This spot, now subsumed into Flamsteed House, is roughly 43 metres to the west of the Airy Transit Circle, a distance equivalent to roughly 2 seconds of longitude. It was Airy's transit circle that was adopted in principle (with French delegates, who pressed for adoption of the Paris meridian abstaining) as the Prime M... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Beginning in 1973 the International Time Bureau and later the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service changed from reliance on optical instruments like the Airy Transit Circle to techniques such as lunar laser ranging, satellite laser ranging, and very-long-baseline interferometry. The new techniques... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
At the latitude of Greenwich, this amounts to 102 metres. This was officially accepted by the Bureau International de l'Heure (BIH) in 1984 via its BTS84 (BIH Terrestrial System) that later became WGS84 (World Geodetic System 1984) and the various International Terrestrial Reference Frames (ITRFs). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Due to the movement of Earth's tectonic plates, the line of 0° longitude along the surface of the Earth has slowly moved toward the west from this shifted position by a few centimetres; that is, towards the Airy Transit Circle (or the Airy Transit Circle has moved toward the east, depending on your point of view) since... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
As a result, the IERS Reference Meridian was established and is commonly used to denote the Earth's prime meridian (0° longitude) by the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service, which defines and maintains the link between longitude and time. Based on observations to satellites and celestial compact ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
On Earth, starting at the North Pole and heading south to the South Pole, the IERS Reference Meridian (as of 2016) passes through: | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
As on the Earth, prime meridians must be arbitrarily defined. Often a landmark such as a crater is used; other times a prime meridian is defined by reference to another celestial object, or by magnetic fields. The prime meridians of the following planetographic systems have been defined: Two different heliographic coor... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
In this system, the prime meridian passes through the center of the solar disk as seen from the Earth on 9 November 1853, which is when the English astronomer Richard Christopher Carrington started his observations of sunspots. The second is the Stonyhurst heliographic coordinates system, originated at Stonyhurst Obser... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Defined in 1992, the prime meridian of Venus passes through the central peak in the crater Ariadne. The prime meridian of the Moon lies directly in the middle of the face of the moon visible from Earth and passes near the crater Bruce. The prime meridian of Mars was established in 1971 and passes through the center of ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Jupiter has several coordinate systems because its cloud tops—the only part of the planet visible from space—rotate at different rates depending on latitude. It is unknown whether Jupiter has any internal solid surface that would enable a more Earth-like coordinate system. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
System I and System II coordinates are based on atmospheric rotation, and System III coordinates use Jupiter's magnetic field. The prime meridians of Jupiter's four Galilean moons were established in 1979. Titan is the largest moon of Saturn and, like the Earth's moon, always has the same face towards Saturn, and so th... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
Like Jupiter, Neptune is a gas giant, so any surface is obscured by clouds. The prime meridian of its largest moon, Triton, was established in 1991. Pluto's prime meridian is defined as the meridian passing through the center of the face that is always towards Charon, its largest moon, as the two are tidally locked to ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prime_meridian |
An outline, also called a hierarchical outline, is a list arranged to show hierarchical relationships and is a type of tree structure. An outline is used to present the main points (in sentences) or topics (terms) of a given subject. Each item in an outline may be divided into additional sub-items. If an organizational... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
An outline may be used as a drafting tool of a document, or as a summary of the content of a document or of the knowledge in an entire field. It is not to be confused with the general context of the term "outline", which a summary or overview of a subject, presented verbally or written in prose (for example, The Outlin... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
A sentence outline is a tool for composing a document, such as an essay, a paper, a book, or even an encyclopedia. It is a list used to organize the facts or points to be covered, and their order of presentation, by section. Topic outlines list the subtopics of a subject, arranged in levels, and while they can be used ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Outlines are further differentiated by the index prefixing used, or lack thereof. Many outlines include a numerical or alphanumerical prefix preceding each entry in the outline, to provide a specific path for each item, to aid in referring to and discussing the entries listed. An alphanumerical outline uses alternating... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
A decimal outline uses only numbers as prefixes. An outline without prefixes is called a "bare outline". | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Specialized applications of outlines also exist. A reverse outline is a list of sentences or topics that is created from an existing work, as a revision tool; it may show the gaps in the document's coverage so that they may be filled, and may help in rearranging sentences or topics to improve the structure and flow of ... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Outlines are differentiated by style, the inclusion of prefixes, and specialized purpose. There are also hand-written outlines (which are highly limited in utility), and digitized outlines, such as those contained within an outliner (which are much more useful). | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
There are two main styles of outline: sentence outlines and topic outlines. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Propædia is the historical attempt of the Encyclopædia Britannica to present a hierarchical "Outline of Knowledge" in a separate volume in the 15th edition of 1974. The Outline of Knowledge was a project by Mortimer Adler. Propædia had three levels, 10 "Parts" at the top level, 41 "Divisions" at the middle level and 16... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
A feature included in many outlines is prefixing. Similar to section numbers, an outline prefix is a label (usually alphanumeric or numeric) placed at the beginning of an outline entry to assist in referring to it. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
An alphanumeric outline includes a prefix at the beginning of each topic as a reference aid. The prefix is in the form of Roman numerals for the top level, upper-case letters (in the alphabet of the language being used) for the next level, Arabic numerals for the next level, and then lowercase letters for the next leve... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
I. The situation: Over 80% of today's companies monitor their employees. A. To prevent fraudulent activities, theft, and other workplace related violations. B. To more efficiently monitor employee productivity. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
C. To prevent any legal liabilities due to harassing or offensive communications. II. What are employees' privacy rights when it comes to electronic monitoring and surveillance in the workplace? | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
A. American employees have basically no legal protection from mean and snooping bosses. 1. There are no federal or State laws protecting employees. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
2. Employees may assert privacy protection for their own personal effects. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
B. Most managers believe that there is no right to privacy in the workplace. 1. Workplace communications should be about work; anything else is a misuse of company equipment and company time 2. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Employers have a right to prevent misuse by monitoring employee communications Some call the Roman numerals "A-heads" (for "A-level headings"), the upper-case letters, "B-heads", and so on. Some writers also prefer to insert a blank line between the A-heads and B-heads, while often keeping the B-heads and C-heads toget... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
The scheme recommended by the MLA Handbook, and the Purdue Online Writing Lab, among others, uses the usual five levels, as described above, then repeats the Arabic numerals and lower-case letter surrounded by parentheses (round brackets) – I. A. 1. a. i. (1) (a) – and does not specify any lower levels, though "(i)" is... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
In common practice, lower levels yet are usually Arabic numerals and lowercase letters again, and sometimes lower-case Roman again, with single parentheses – 1) a) i) – but usage varies. MLA style is sometimes incorrectly referred to as APA style, but the APA Publication Manual does not address outline formatting at al... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
1. a) (1) (a) i) – capital Roman numerals with a period, capital letters with a period, Arabic numerals with a period, italic lowercase letters with a single parenthesis, Arabic numerals with a double parenthesis, italic lowercase letters with a double parenthesis, and italic lowercase Roman numerals with a single pare... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
One side effect of the use of both Roman numerals and uppercase letters in all of these styles of outlining is that in most alphabets, "I." may be an item at both the top (A-head) and second (B-head) levels. This is usually not problematic because lower level items are usually referred to hierarchically. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
For example, the third sub-sub-item of the fourth sub-item of the second item is item II. D. 3. So, the ninth sub-item (letter-I) of the first item (Roman-I) is item I. I., and only the top level one is item I. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
The decimal outline format has the advantage of showing how every item at every level relates to the whole, as shown in the following sample outline: Thesis statement: --- 1.0 Introduction 1.1 Brief history of Liz Claiborne 1.2 Corporate environment 2.0 Career opportunities 2.1 Operations management 2.1.1 Traffic 2.1.2... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Special types of outlines include reverse outlines and integrated outlines. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
A reverse outline is an outline made from an existing work. Reverse outlining is like reverse engineering a document. The points or topics are extracted from the work, and are arranged in their order of presentation, by section, in the outline. Once completed, the outline can be filled in and rearranged as a plan for a... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
An integrated outline is a helpful step in the process of organizing and writing a scholarly paper (literature review, research paper, thesis or dissertation). When completed the integrated outline contains the relevant scholarly sources (author's last name, publication year, page number if quote) for each section in t... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Part of the system should contain a systematic way to take notes on the scholarly sources. These notes can then be tied to the paper through the integrated outline. This way the scholar reviews all of the literature before the writing begins. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
An integrated outline can be a helpful tool for people with writer's block because the content of the paper is organized and identified prior to writing. The structure and content is combined and the author can write a small section at a time. The process is less overwhelming because it can be separated into manageable... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
For a comparison, see § Outliners, below. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Outlines are used for composition, summarization, and as a development and storage medium. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Merriam-Webster's manual for writers and editors (1998, p. 290) recommends that the section headings of an article should when read in isolation, combine to form an outline of the article content.

In addition to being used as a composition tool during the drafting process, outlines can also be used as a publishing format. Outlines can be presented as work's table of contents, but they can also be used as the body of a work. The Outline of Knowledge from the 15th edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica is an examp... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Professors often hand out to their students at the beginning of a term, a summary of the subjects to be covered throughout the course in the form of a topic outline. It may also be included as part of a larger course synopsis. Outlines are also used to summarize talking points for a speech or lecture. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Outlines, especially those used within an outliner, can be used for planning, scheduling, and recording. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
An outliner (or "outline processor") is a specialized type of word processor used to view, create, build, modify, and maintain outlines. It is a computer program, or part of one, used for displaying, organizing, and editing hierarchically arranged text in an outline's tree structure. Textual information is contained in... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
Outliners are used for storing and retrieving textual information, with terms, phrases, sentences, or paragraphs attached to a tree. So rather than being arranged by document, information is arranged by topic or content. | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
An outline in an outliner may contain as many topics as desired. This eliminates the need to have separate documents, as outlines easily include other outlines just by adding to the tree. The main difference between a hand-written outline and a digital one, is that the former is usually limited to a summary or blueprin... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
In other words, as a hand-written work an outline is a writing tool, but on a computer, it is a general purpose format supported by a robust development and display medium capable of handling knowledge from its creation to its end use. Outliners may be used in content creation instead of general word processors for cap... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_(list) |
