= Coordinate systems, reference points and coordinate transformation

OSI uses DIN ISO 8855:2013-11 cite:[iso8855] for coordinate systems and transformations between coordinate systems.
OSI uses three coordinate systems:
OSI uses the following coordinate systems:

Global coordinate system::
Coordinate system for all entities that are part of ground truth.

This reference point may be derived from map data or other considerations.
Global coordinates can be mapped to a geographic coordinate system via `osi3::GroundTruth::proj_string`.

Host vehicle coordinate system::
The host vehicle coordinate system's origin is defined to be at the center of the rear axle of the host vehicle.

Sensor coordinate system::
Coordinate system for all entities that are part of sensor data.
The origin is the mounting position of the physical sensor or a virtual mounting position, depending on the OSI message.
Both physical and virtual sensor coordinate systems are relative to the host vehicle coordinate system.

Object coordinate system::
Local object coordinate system.
