Polar Area
Equal-Area projection
A polar projection of the earth shows a pole (north or south, depending on the projection) at the center of a circular map. The equator is the circumference of the circle.
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.

A map centred on a Pole.
Equal-Area projection
Lines of latitude on a polar projection map radiate outward from the center towards the edges of the map. On a polar projection map, the North Pole is typically at the center, while lines of latitude move southward towards the map edges.

The polar regions are often represented using the azimuthal polar projection. This projection centers on one of the poles, allowing for an accurate depiction of the area surrounding it. It is particularly useful for navigation and for representing phenomena such as weather patterns in polar areas. The azimuthal polar projection distorts shapes and sizes further from the center, but provides a clear view of the polar regions themselves.

western time. i need eastern time
