From Conic to Cylindrical Map Projections
Geodetski Vestnik, 2023 In books and textbooks on map projections, cylindrical, conic and azimuthal projections are usually considered separately. It is sometimes mentioned that cylindrical and azimuthal projections can be interpreted as limiting cases of conic, but this is ...

Fundamentals of Geo-Positioning Reference Frames, Map Projections and Their Applications [PDF]
Maǧallaẗ Markaz Al-Buḥūṯ Al-Ǧuġrāfiyyaẗ wa Al-Kārtūğirāfiyyaẗ, 2020 : A map is defined as a miniature drawing of the Earth's surface or part of it. The designation was based on many projections used to transmit information from reality to the map, and this would be in the processing of geospatial information.

On the Definition of Standard Parallels in Map Projections
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2023 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.

On the Combinatorics of Projective Mappings [PDF]
Journal of Algebraic Combinatorics, 2001 Let \(\mathcal{P}\) denote the group of non-degenerate projective mappings of \(\mathbb R \cup \{\infty\}\), i.e. the set of non-constant linear fractions \(x\mapsto\frac{ax+b}{cx+d}\) where \(ad-bc\neq 0\), with the composition \(\varphi \circ \psi: x\mapsto \varphi(\psi(x))\) as the group operation. Finite sets of such mappings are denoted by \(\Phi\)

Projective mapping based on choice or preference: An affective approach to projective mapping [PDF]
Food Research International, 2017 This work explores a new affective approach to projective mapping, based on consumers' choices or preferences. Two sessions, one week apart, were performed with the same consumers, using whole bread as a case study. Overall liking ratings (OL) were gathered in blind conditions and samples were also profiled by a trained panel using generic descriptive ...

The Influence of Map Projections on People’s Global-Scale Cognitive Map: A Worldwide Study
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020 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 ...
