The center of mass of a storm.

the centre of mass of any object, the balance point. • the ‘average’ position of all the points in an object. • a cardboard cut-out of a shape can be perfectly balanced on its centroid. • the centroid [..]

[geometry] A centroid (or geometric center) is a central point of an area feature. Centroids are defined as the average position of all the points in the shape.

the center of mass of an object. The point where the object would balance if supported by a single support. The point in a triangle where the three medians intersect. chain rule

(n) the center of mass of an object of uniform density

The term given to the center of an area, region, or polygon. In the case of irregularly shaped polygons, the centroid is derived mathematically and is weighted to approximate a sort of `center of grav [..]

A defined point within a TAZ from which all trips are assumed to start or end. It should be located to reflect the center of activity in a TAZ and not necessarily the geographic center. Centroids are [..]

The center of mass of a convective cell (storm) or other precipitation system.

The center of mass of a storm.

A point that is linked to a TAZ that loads traffic onto the network

Similar to the concept of center of gravity, except that it applies to a two dimensional shape rather than an object. For a given shape, the centroid location corresponds to the center of gravity for a thin flat plate of that shape, made from a homogeneous material.

(mathematics,physics) The point at the centre of any shape, sometimes called centre of area or centre of volume. For a triangle, the centroid is the point at which the medians intersect. The co-ordi [..]
