What is the equal area projection |
|
Answer» An equal area projection is a map projection that shows regions that are the same size on the Earth the same size on the map but may distort the shape, ANGLE, and/or scale. Explanation: The equal area projection retains the relative size of area throughout a map. So that means at any given REGION in a map, an equal area projection keeps the true size of features. While equal area projections PRESERVE area, it distorts shape, ANGLES and cannot be conformal. |
