Regarding coordinate system translations

[mwpowellhtx]

At root have what is in effect a Cartography problem, fictional map, let's say, in two dimensional space. Chiefly I have a world coordinate system some 1.5M in X-Y dimensions, that is a hard fact, maintained in decimal for precision to centimeters on the ground so to speak. The challenge is to map these coordinates into the SKIA Bitmap Canvas euclidian space, as a function of the scaling between world and canvas resolution. Can apply views ports etc to sesctions, but this is neither here nor there. If the scaling translation problem is inaccurate mapping from world:canvas, the rest is fairly meaningless and can (does) lead to inaccuracies. The naive approach simply applying some scaling coefficients, is a good start, but like I said, I think this is problem higher order math than that, probably involving some matrix or linear algebra, which I am not opposed to, but I wonder if there are efforts under way to conceive of this issue from SS.E perspective.

Actually regarding my discussion, here I was ready to possibly jump into some linear algebra... But it may not be necessary, assuming what the simple SKCanvas.Scale method does. Or at least that the current tact I will be investigating. Will certainly make things a bit easier dealing with canvas if we can just set a scale accordingly and land in 1:1 world:canvas or at least something closer to that, and not 1/183 or whatever is is, world:canvas. Closing for now.
