  2. Mercator projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercator_projection

    Much Web-based mapping uses a zoomable version of the Mercator projection with an aspect ratio of one. In this case the maximum latitude attained must correspond to y = ± ⁠ W / 2 ⁠, or equivalently ⁠ y / R ⁠ = π. Any of the inverse transformation formulae may be used to calculate the corresponding latitudes:

  3. Circle of latitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_of_latitude

    The latitude of the circle is approximately the angle between the Equator and the circle, with the angle's vertex at Earth's centre. The Equator is at 0°, and the North Pole and South Pole are at 90° north and 90° south, respectively. The Equator is the longest circle of latitude and is the only circle of latitude which also is a great circle.

    The 85th parallel north is a circle of latitude that is 85 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane, in the Arctic.This parallel lies entirely within the Arctic Ocean.. At this latitude the entire sun is visible for 24 hours, 0 minutes during the summer solstice and during the winter solstice, the latitude is under total nighttime during the entire day.

In cartography, a Tissot's indicatrix (Tissot indicatrix, Tissot's ellipse, Tissot ellipse, ellipse of distortion) (plural: "Tissot's indicatrices") is a mathematical contrivance presented by French mathematician Nicolas Auguste Tissot in 1859 and 1871 in order to characterize local ...
