(sometimes Shape, Area
, bearing and
scale)
Mercator Answer-
Projection- Correct 101-
distortions - preserves
direction, shape and
area gets
distorted
Mercator Answer-101-
Projection - Correct projecting the Earth
tangent onto a cylinder
to a
meridian
Azimuthal Projection- distortions - Correct Answer-101- distance from center is
true,
other properties distort with
distance
Cylindrical Answer-
Projection- Correct 101-
distortions preserve
- shape, area and
distance gets distorted, especially on upper and lower regions of the map
