 A unit of line is 12 nautical miles. Stations increase from inshore to offshore.
-A unit of station is equal to 4 nautical miles. The rotation point is located at
-line 80, station 60, or 34.15 degrees N, -121.15 degrees W, and is depicted by

 The CalCOFI program is a joint research effort by the U.S. National Oceanic and
-Atmospheric Administration, University of California Scripps Oceanographic Institute,
-and California Department of Fish and Game. Surveys have been conducted for the
-CalCOFI program since 1951, creating one of the oldest and most scientifically
-valuable joint oceanographic and fisheries data sets in the world. The CalCOFI
-line and station coordinate system is now used by several other programs including
-the Investigaciones Mexicanas de la Corriente de California (IMECOCAL) program
-offshore of Baja California. The figure depicts some commonly sampled locations
-from line 40 to line 156.7 and offshore to station 120. Blue numbers indicate line
-(bottom) or station (left) numbers along the grid. Note that lines spaced at
-approximate 3-1/3 intervals are commonly sampled, e.g., lines 43.3 and 46.7.

-There has been little usage of the spherical version of the Cassini, but the ellipsoidal Cassini-Soldner version was adopted by the Ordnance Survey for the official survey of Great Britain during the second half of the 19th century [Steers1970]_. Many of these maps were prepared at a scale of 1:2,500. The Cassini-Soldner was also used for the detailed mapping of many German states during the same period.

-Because of the distortions introduced by this projection, it has little use in navigation or cadastral mapping and finds its main use in thematic mapping. In particular, the plate carrée has become a standard for global raster datasets, such as Celestia and NASA World Wind, because of the particularly simple relationship between the position of an image pixel on the map and its corresponding geographic location on Earth.

-Prior to the development of the Universal Transverse Mercator coordinate system, several European nations demonstrated the utility of grid-based conformal maps by mapping their territory during the interwar period. Calculating the distance between two points on these maps could be performed more easily in the field (using the Pythagorean theorem) than was possible using the trigonometric formulas required under the graticule-based system of latitude and longitude. In the post-war years, these concepts were extended into the Universal Transverse Mercator/Universal Polar Stereographic (UTM/UPS) coordinate system, which is a global (or universal) system of grid-based maps.
