What else can I help you with?
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 map is most widely used for navigation?
Mercators map projection. answered by David Kops djkadafie@gmail.com
What is the Robinson map projection?
The Robinson projection shows the entire world map at once.
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 are other projection methods used by geographers and mapmakers?
Three projection methods used by geographers and map makers are: cylindrical conic planar.

The projection note for any map sheet identifies the projection system used on the map sheet?
True. The projection note for any map sheet identifies the projection system used on the map sheet.
What is a mercator projection and what is its purpose?
Mercator's projection is a map used mostly in the Americas. The purpose of the map projection was to help sailors trade. It was a sailor's map

What is the best map projection to use?
Robinson Projection because it has minor distortions, the sizes and shapes near the eastern and western edges of the map are accurate, and outlines of the continents appear much as they do on the globe.
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 is the Robinson map projection?
The Robinson projection shows the entire world map at once.
Does the projection note for any map sheet identify the projection system used on the map sheet?
Yes, the projection note on a map sheet typically identifies the projection system used, such as Mercator, Robinson, or Lambert conformal conic, among others. This information is important for understanding how the map distorts geographic features and distances.
What the difference between a map and a map projection?
a map projection is a map that has lots of different angles.
What is the difference between map and map projection?
a map projection is a map that has lots of different angles.
How many years was the Mercator projection map used for?
It still is used.
What type of map projection is used by airline pilots?
The type of map projection used by pilots is called a Polar Projection. It shows the Earth from one of the two poles, which helps show what is known as The Great Circle Route. This states that if you live on a rounded object such as the Earth, you travel on a curved line. This makes a Polar Projection the best choice and most commonly used map projection used by pilots.
