A horizontal datum is a specified coordinate system for a collection of positions on the surface of the earth. Traditionally, horizontal datums have used classical surveying methods(i. e. measuring distances and angles through triangulation surveys) to best fit to the surface of the earth. 1, record 1, English, - horizontal%20datum

ACOS is responsible for the assignment of Horizontal and Group Safety Functions to TCs, subject to confirmation by the SMB, which are thereby mandated to prepare Basic Safety/Group Safety Publications.

The ISS [International Space Station] flies in an attitude that is referenced to the orbital plane of ISS using a set of local vertical/local-horizontal axes. The origin is at the ISS centre of mass, with the x-axis pointing along the direction of the orbital velocity vector (sometimes referred to as the "ram" direction). The z-axis points directly towards the Earth, and the y-axis parallel to the truss assembly ... This orientation is referred to as "x-axis toward the velocity vector" Torque Equilibrium Attitude and is the "normal" orientation of the ISS. The overall ISS design is optimised to fly in this attitude, which places the most laboratory modules in the "best" microgravity volume, supports attitude reboosts, service vehicle docking and minimises aerodynamic drag. 3, record 8, English, - local%20vertical%20local%20horizontal
