A map that preserves both shape and size is known as an equidistant map projection. This type of projection maintains distances accurately, allowing for both shape and scale to be represented correctly. However, it's important to note that while some projections can preserve shape (like conformal projections) or size (like equal-area projections), few can do both simultaneously across the entire map. As a result, equidistant projections often compromise on one of these properties to maintain the other.
What else can I help you with?
Which map projection shows correct direction and shape but not size and distance?
B
What are four important elements which a map projection attempts to show?
shape, size or area ,distance and direction
What is the flat map shape like an oval called?
A map in the shape of an oval is called the Mollweide Map.
What kind of map projection would you use to show the size of various land masses?
Equal-Area projection
What is a map that shows shape on a map?
a physical map
What type of map preserves shape and preserves size?
A conformal map is a type of map that preserves shape (angles) and a equal-area map preserves size (area). However, no single map projection can perfectly preserve both shape and size simultaneously across an entire map.
What map preserves shape and what map preserves size?
A conformal map preserves shape, meaning angles are maintained. A equal-area map preserves size, meaning areas are accurately represented.
What is error in shape distance or size on a map?
scale
Shows size and shapes on a map accurately?
the atlas that truckers most use are maps in which show true shape but definitely indignify the size of the map
Where on the map is it the most out of shape or size?
You must be referring to a cartogram. This map places countries in population rather than size.
