Více o knize
The book delves into the evolution of map projections utilized by the U.S. Geological Survey, highlighting the transition from the Polyconic projection to various conformal, equal-area, and equidistant projections for different mapping needs. It introduces innovative projections like the Space Oblique Mercator, designed for satellite mapping, and explores the implications of mapping extraterrestrial bodies. Additionally, it covers the mathematical foundations for these projections, making complex calculations accessible through modern computerization, alongside discussions of their history and practical applications.
