a paper cone is placed on a globe like a hat, tangent to it at some parallel, and a point source of light at the center of the globe projects the surface features onto the cone.
1)They are made by wrapping a cone of paper around a globe .2)A map containing several conic projections are called a Polyconic.3)When you wrap the paper around the globe to make conic projection it has to be at a certain line of lattitude .
Three types of projection include planar (the globe is projected onto a flat sheet, with only one point of the globe touching the surface), cylindrical (the globe is projected onto a cylinder with the all points along a great circle touching the surface), or conical (the globe is projected onto a cone with two lines of parallel touching the reference surface).
It is having the cone.
Uvula
A cone shown in a circle
Conic projection is, essentially, a map that is a cone then flattened. An example sentence is: Conic projection helps a lot of people understand maps clearer.
polyconic
Conic means pretaining to or ressembling a cone
