The literature usually calls downscaled versions of basic conformal map projections ?secant?, referring to conceptual developable map surfaces that intersect the reference frame. However, recent studies pointed out on the examples of various mappings of ...

In previous papers that have dealt with cylindrical map projections as limiting cases of conical projections, standard or equidistant parallels were used in the derivations. This paper shows that this is not necessary and that it is sufficient to use par...

The article belongs to the field of theoretical research on map projections. It is observed that there is no unique and generally accepted definition of standard parallels in the cartographic literature. For some authors, a standard line is a line along ...

Map projections are usually interpreted by mapping a sphere onto an auxiliary surface, and then the surface is developed into a plane. It is taken as a fact without proof that the parallels in which the auxiliary surface intersects the sphere are mapped ...

Map mosaics of the First Military Survey showing Lower Austria and Hungary (two separate zones and coordinate systems of 1:28,800 survey sections) were georeferenced. Compared to the previous fitting carried out in the framework of the publicly available...

Global climate change has affected forest health and productivity. A highly visible, direct climate impact is dieback caused by drought periods in moisture-limited forest ecosystems. Here, we have used a climate moisture index (CMI), which has been devel...

We studied the numerical approximation problem of distortion in map projections. Most widely used differential methods calculate area distortion and maximum angular distortion using partial derivatives of forward equations of map projections. However, in...

How might we teach undergraduate students about Indigenous geographies using historical maps? This paper describes processes associated with the bridging of a historical Kiowa map with computerized geographic information systems (GIS) and undergraduate g...

Map projections are required to represent the globe on a flat surface, which always results in distorted representations of the globe. Accordingly, the world maps we observe in daily life contexts, such as on news sites, in news bulletins, on social medi...
