Map Projection Design

Map Projection Design is a methodological contribution in cartographic science that specifies the systematic transformation of geographic coordinates from a curved, three-dimensional surface to a two-dimensional plane, distinguished by its intentional selection and optimization of distortion properties to serve specific thematic, navigational, or analytical purposes in atlas production.
