Equidistant conicΒΆ
The equidistant conic projection was described by the Greek philosopher Claudius Ptolemy about A.D. 150. It is neither conformal or equal-area, but serves as a compromise between them. The scale is true along all meridians and the standard parallels.
Dlon0/lat0/lat1/lat2/width
: Give projection center lon0/lat0
, two standard
parallels lat1/lat2
, and the map width.
