Que sont les systčmes de coordonnées géographiques ?
...Un systčme de coordonnées géographiques fait appel ā une surface sphérique en trois dimensions pour définir des emplacements sur la Terre. Il est souvent désigné incorrectement par le nom de datum, alors qu?un datum n?est qu?une partie d?un systčme de coordonnées géographiques....

Coordinate systems, map projections, and transformations
...Geographic coordinate systems are based on a three-dimensional ellipsoidal or spherical surface, and locations are defined using angular measurements, usually in decimal degrees, measuring degrees of longitude (x-coordinates) and degrees of latitude (y-coordinates)....

What are geographic coordinate systems??ArcMap | Documentation - Esri
...A geographic coordinate system (GCS) uses a three-dimensional spherical surface to define locations on the earth. A GCS is often incorrectly called a datum, but a datum is only one part of a GCS. A GCS includes an angular unit of measure, a prime meridian, and a datum (based on a spheroid)....

Geographic vs Projected Coordinate Systems
...What is the difference between a geographic coordinate system (GCS) and a projected coordinate system (PCS) anyways? Here?s the short answer: A GCS defines where the data is located on the earth?s surface. A PCS tells the data how to draw on a flat surface, like on a paper map or a computer screen....
