What is the matrix for clockwise rotation?
If a standard right-handed Cartesian coordinate system is used, with the x axis to the right and the y axis up, the rotation R(θ) is counterclockwise. If a left-handed Cartesian coordinate system is used, with x directed to the right but y directed down, R(θ) is clockwise.
What is the flow direction?
Flow direction determines which direction water will flow in a given cell. Based on the direction of the steepest descent in each cell, we measure flow direction. Also, the z-value difference and slope are calculated between neighboring cells.
What is flow direction in Arcgis?
The Flow Direction raster function takes a surface as input and creates a raster of flow direction from each pixel to its steepest downslope neighbor. The Flow Direction function supports three flow modeling methods: the D8 (eight directions), Multi-Flow Direction (MFD), and D-Infinity (DINF).
Why is rotation matrix 4x4?
Short answer: 3x3 describes rotation/skew/scale, etc. You need the 4x4 in order to describe translation.
