Map Projection Transitions is a very successful web application about map projections. The web page (http://www.jasondavies.com/maps/transition) presents a world map with graticule and country borders in the oblique Aitoff projection, with the South ...

On the Combinatorics of Projective Mappings [PDF]
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 \(\Phi\)

Approximately Conformal, Equivalent and Equidistant Map Projections [PDF]
If geodetic coordinates from an ellipsoid are included in the equations of a projection for mapping a sphere instead of geographical coordinates, the result will be a projection of the ellipsoid into a plane.

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

From Conic to Cylindrical Map Projections
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 ...

Projective mapping based on choice or preference: An affective approach to projective mapping [PDF]
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 ...

Dynamic Point Cloud Compression Based on Projections, Surface Reconstruction and Video Compression
In this paper we will present a new dynamic point cloud compression based on different projection types and bit depth, combined with the surface reconstruction algorithm and video compression for obtained geometry and texture maps. Texture maps have been

Semantically Enabling Map Projections Knowledge
Map projections are an area of cartography with a firm mathematical foundation for their creation and display providing a basis for a knowledge representation.

Measuring, analyzing, reducing, and optimizing distortions in map projections is important in cartography. In this study, we introduced a novel image-based angular distortion metric based on the previous spherical great circle arcs-based metric.
