61Polar projection — Polar Po lar, a. [Cf. F. polaire. See {Pole} of the earth.] 1. Of or pertaining to one of the poles of the earth, or of a sphere; situated near, or proceeding from, one of the poles; as, polar regions; polar seas; polar winds. [1913 Webster] 2.… …
62Bonne projection — A Bonne projection is a pseudoconical equal area map projection, sometimes called a dépôt de la guerre or a Sylvanus projection. Although named after Rigobert Bonne (1727 1795), the projection was in use prior to his birth, in 1511 by Sylvano,… …
63Winkel tripel projection — The Winkel tripel projection (Winkel III) is a modified azimuthal map projection, one of three projections proposed by Oswald Winkel in 1921. The projection is the arithmetic mean of the equirectangular projection and the Aitoff projection [… …
64Lambert conformal conic map projection — A conformal map projection of the so called conical type, on which all geographic meridians are represented by straight lines that meet in a common point outside the limits of the map, and the geographic parallels are represented by a series of… …

66Polyconic projection — A polyconic projection is a conical map projection. The projection stems from rolling a cone tangent to the Earth at all parallels of latitude, instead of a single cone in a normal conic projection. Each parallel is a circular arc of true scale.… …
67Space-oblique Mercator projection — is a map projection.HistoryThe Space oblique Mercator projection (SOM) was developed by John P. Snyder, Alden Partridge Colvocoresses and John L. Junkins in 1976. Snyder had an interest in maps, originating back to his childhood and his regularly …
68Tobler hyperelliptical projection — The Tobler hyperelliptical projection is a family of pseudocylindrical projections used for mapping the earth.It is named for Waldo R. Tobler, its inventor. It is an equal area projection. In the normal aspect, the parallels of latitude are… …
69Cabinet projection — or sometimes cabinet perspective is a type of oblique projection. The term stems from the use for illustrations in furniture industry. This projection has been used in early video games such as Paperboy and Pac Mania. Principle Like Cavalier… …
70Lambert conformal projection — Cartog. a conformal projection in which meridians are represented as straight lines converging toward the nearest pole and parallels as arc segments of concentric circles. [1875 80; named after J. H. LAMBERT] * * * ▪ topography conic… …
