yes ,Mercator Robinson and conic projections differ because Mercator Robinson is not true it`s Mercator projection .

Mercator projections are

the grid is rectangular and lines of latitude and longitude are all parallel. conic projections are a map projections of the globe onto a cone with its points over one of the earth`s poles

How do Mercator Robinson and Conic projections differ?

Mercator and conic projections are different because conic projections have a cone/triangle shape and they are the same because both are type of maps..... I know really bad answer but I hope this helped


What are two map projection?

Two common map projections are Mercator and the Robinson Projection.


What is the common flaw for both the Robinson and Mercator projections of maps?

Both Robinson and Mercator projection have severe distortion close to the poles. The Robinson projection is neither equal-area nor conformal. The Mercator projection is conformal in that it preserves angles, however, it distorts the size and shape of large objects, as the scale increases from the Equator to the poles, where it becomes infinite.


Why Greenland appears larger on a mercator projections than it does on a Robinson projection?

Well because the Mercator project is made to stretch out so Greenland stretches out and it bigger on the Robinson projection and this is the wrong answer have a good day folks lol jk this is the right answer ppl


What type of map projections do textbooks writers use?

Textbook writers typically use cylindrical or pseudo-cylindrical map projections such as the Mercator, Robinson, or Mollweide projections. These projections provide a good balance between accuracy, distortion, and ease of understanding for educational purposes.

What are two types of uninterrupted projections?

Two types of uninterrupted projections are azimuthal and conic projections. Azimuthal projections are made by placing a flat piece of paper against the globe and tracing the outlines, while conic projections involve projecting the globe onto a cone and then unwrapping it onto a flat surface.


What are the other projections besides the mercator projection?

The other popular map projections include the so-called "compromise" projections, including: Robinson Winkel Tripel Dymaxion (Buckminster Fuller) Butterfly Map (Cahill) Kavrayskiy Wagner pseudocylindrical Chamberlin trimetric Fine's cordiform


What different kinds of projections do world maps come in?

World maps come in a number of projections, each have their own uses and problems. These different projections include a globe, several types of Mercator projections, Robinson, Miller cylindrical, stereographic, orthographic, Sinusoidal, Gnomonic, several types of Azimuthal projections, and others. The US Geological Survey has comprehensive information on map projections available.


How are the lines of longitude on the mercator projection different form the other two?

Lines of longitude on the Mercator projection are straight and evenly spaced, while on the other two projections (such as the Robinson or Winkel Tripel), they are curved and vary in spacing. This distortion in longitude is a trade-off for maintaining accurate shapes and angles on the Mercator projection.
