What is a Winkle Tribal map projection?
A Winkle Tribal map projection is a modified azimuthal map projection. This is one of three projection.
What are the disadvantages and advantages of azimuthal projection?
This map projection has the advantage of showing the correct distances between places when taken from the centre point of the projection, however it has the disadvantage that the distances from all other points are incorrect, and areas and shapes get distorted more that one moves away from the centre of the projection.
What map shows accurate size and shape?
The "Peter Projection" (also called the Gall-Peters projection) has accurate relative areas but distorted shapes. It is is one specialization of a configurable equal-area map projection known as the equal-area cylindric.These projections preserve area:Gall orthographic (also known as Gall-Peters, or Peters, projection)Albers conicLambert azimuthal equal-areaLambert cylindrical equal-areaMollweideHammerBriesemeisterSinusoidalWernerBonneBottomleyGoode's homolosineHobo-DyerCollignonTobler hyperelliptical
What type of map would give you the best estimate of distance between Atlanta GA and Knoxville TN?
-- A road map with the distance marked between every pair of junctions. -- An azimuthal equidistant projection centered on either of those cities.
Who is the person that create the first modern map?
Gerardus Mercator developed the map that is sliced up at the north and south poles.Impshum a map of the world is a map that shows every country and every piece of land and its what i have
Is a polar projection an example of a azimuthal projection?
yes
What is a Round or circular shaped map projection?
Azimuthal
What is a Winkle Tribal map projection?
A Winkle Tribal map projection is a modified azimuthal map projection. This is one of three projection.
Is azimuthal is a type of map projection?
Azimuth is the measurement of the position of a star in the sky
Projection suitable for mapping a small area?
The Cylindrical projection should be the basis for a large rectangular area and a Conic projection for a triangular area.Therefore use a circular/Azimuthal for a small area or even conic.
What is the most used projection map?
Discounting the Mercator, which cartographers tend to HATE but is ubiquitous anyway... Probably the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, or the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area projection (used by the US National Atlas).
What advantage does an azimuthal map projection have over a cylindrical map projection?
actually, we don't have any idea about this because our teacher, florentino morales jr didn't taught us what is this stuff!
What are the disadvantages and advantages of azimuthal projection?
This map projection has the advantage of showing the correct distances between places when taken from the centre point of the projection, however it has the disadvantage that the distances from all other points are incorrect, and areas and shapes get distorted more that one moves away from the centre of the projection.
On what map projection do both meridians and parallels appear as straight lines intersecting each other at right angles?
Cylindrical
What are two other projection methods used by geographers and mapmakers?
Two other projection methods used by geographers and mapmakers are the azimuthal projection, which displays the Earth's surface with a single point from a specific location as the central point, and the conic projection, which projects the Earth's surface onto a cone wrapped around it. Each of these methods has strengths and weaknesses depending on the purpose of the map being created.
What is the polar projection map?
Polar projections are often made in what is called the Azimuthal Equidistant Projection. The projection would be made tangent at the north pole, or at the south pole. These projections allow you to make linear measurements from the pole to any point on earth. These measurements are the shortest distances from the pole to the points and can be directly compared to one another. A polar projection shows the poles; I learned it in my science class.
What is an azimuthal quantum number?
An azimuthal quantum number is a quantum number which represents the angular momentum of an atomic orbital.
