Which Projection was better Mercator or Lambert?

The choice between Mercator and Lambert projections depends on the purpose of the map. Mercator is better for navigation and preserving angles, while Lambert is better for areas near the poles and preserving areas and distances accurately. Choose Mercator for navigation, Lambert for area accuracy.

What type of map projection portrays accurate sizes but distorts the shapes of land masses?

A map projection is a flat representation of the Earth's global surface. There are for different types of projections-- those that focus on distance, those that focus on direction, those that focus on area, and those that focus on shape. Conformal map projections are the type that show the correct size of continents but distort area size.


What type of geographic representation preserves the shape of the features but distorts the are?

A conformal projection preserves the shape of features on a map but distorts their area. Examples of conformal projections include the Mercator projection and the Lambert conformal conic projection.

What type of map projections do navigators and pilots use?

Mercator and Lambert projections are commonly used by (Ship) navigators and aircraft pilots and navigators, supplemented by GPs and other electronic aids. the Lambert system produces a compact circular (sectional) chart easily slipped into instrument housings like bomb sights, drift meters, etc, it is graduated in azimuth, hence making targeting of landmarks easy. in soe models the operators make adustemnts to keep the target destination in the center of the cross hairs- this is on a map, not the actual ground. the projection is as similar as possible so when the Bombardier takes the sights- the image will be familiar!
