Map projection is used for sea travel?
A map projection that is used for sea travel includes the gnomonic projection. This was most often used to find the shortest routes between points on a sphere.
What are the advantages and disadvantages for using a map?

What is the definition of map projection?
A map projection simply is a representation of the round, 3D surface of the earth onto a flat, 2D map. There are different map projections such as Mercator and Robinson each of which have advantages and disadvantages.The appropriate projection for a map depends on the scale of the map and the purposes for which it will be used. For example, a Mercator projection has straight rhumb lines and is therefore excellent for navigation, because compass courses are easy to determine, but there is distortion near the poles.
Which map projection does Cuba use?
The map projection that Cuba uses is equirectangular projection. It shows the equidistant or constant spacing map representation of the country.
What is the Robinson map projection?
The Robinson projection shows the entire world map at once.
What is the advantage of a gnomonic projection?
a gnomonic map makes countries look longer, distorted, and hard to understand

Where are land masses distorted on a gnomonic projection?
Land masses are distorted towards the edges of a gnomonic projection, with the distortion increasing as you move away from the center point. The distortion is most noticeable at the outer edges of the map, particularly near the poles.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of the Mollweide projection?
The Mollweide Projection shows areas that land masses are larger and they are larger. The disorts are shape of land and direction.

What is advantages of polar projection map?
you can see from the top
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 are the advantages and disadvantages of the three map projections?
are lines
What is a gnomonic?

What is the most common map projection used?
The most common map projections are based on three main geometric shapes: 1) Sphere to a Plane 2) Cylindrical Projections, 3) Conic Projections.
What is a Winkle Tribal map projection?
A Winkle Tribal map projection is a modified azimuthal map projection. This is one of three projection.
