Abstract: We survey the existing parts of a classification of finite groups generated by orthogonal transformations in a finite-dimensional Euclidean space whose fixed point subspace has codimension one or two and extend it to a complete classification. These groups naturally arise in the study of the quotient of a Euclidean space by a finite orthogonal group and hence in the theory of orbifolds.
