  5. Miller cylindrical projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miller_cylindrical_projection

    Miller projection with 1,000 km indicatrices of distortion. The Miller cylindrical projection is a modified Mercator projection , proposed by Osborn Maitland Miller in 1942. The latitude is scaled by a factor of 4 ⁄ 5 , projected according to Mercator, and then the result is multiplied by 5 ⁄ 4 to retain scale along the equator. [ 1 ]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercator_projection

    The Mercator projection (/ m ər ˈ k eɪ t ər /) is a conformal cylindrical map projection first presented by Flemish geographer and mapmaker Gerardus Mercator in 1569. In the 18th century, it became the standard map projection for navigation due to its property of representing rhumb lines as straight lines.

  9. Gall–Peters projection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gall–Peters_projection

    The Gall–Peters projection of the world map. The Gall–Peters projection is a rectangular, equal-area map projection. Like all equal-area projections, it distorts most shapes. It is a cylindrical equal-area projection with latitudes 45° north and south as the regions on the map that have no distortion. The projection is named after James ...
