What is the most used projection map?
Discounting the Mercator, which cartographers tend to HATE but is ubiquitous anyway... Probably the Lambert Conformal Conic projection, or the Lambert Azimuthal Equal-Area projection (used by the US National Atlas).
Why is Projection maps of Earth are made in a variety of ways such as the Robinson projection Mercator projection and conic projection?
Projection maps of Earth are created in various ways to address the challenges of representing a three-dimensional surface on a two-dimensional plane. Each projection, such as the Robinson, Mercator, and conic projections, emphasizes different aspects of geography, such as area, shape, or distance, catering to specific needs in navigation, education, or thematic mapping. The choice of projection affects how features are depicted, making it essential to select the appropriate type based on the map's intended use. Ultimately, the diversity of projections reflects the complexity of accurately portraying our planet’s surface.
What are the advantages and disadvantages of a Mercator projection and of an equal area projection?
money
Does the ocean cover less area than the land?
no water covers 71% of the earths surface and land 29%
What kind of map projection would you use to show the size of various land masses?
Equal-Area projection
Which ocean covers most of the area shown on the Robinson projection map?
Pacific ocean
Which ocean covers the most area shown on the Robinson projection map?
Pacific Ocean
Why do many geographs prefer the Robinson projection?
it is an equal-area map
What is Robinson Compromise Projection?
The Robinson Compromise Projection is a map projection created by Arthur H. Robinson in 1963. It aims to minimize distortions of both area and shape, making it useful for world maps. It strikes a balance between maintaining accurate land masses and preserving an aesthetically pleasing appearance.
Which ocean covers most area?
Pacific
Why do many goegraphers prefer the Robinson projection?
u dont u r dum equal area of maps

What is the length of Atlantic ocean?
The Atlantic Ocean covers an area of 106,400,000 square miles. This ocean is the second largest in the world and covers 20 percent of the Earth.
What is a Robinson map?
A Robinson map is a type of world map projection that was created in 1963 by Arthur H. Robinson. It aims to balance the distortion of shape, area, scale, and distance in a way that provides a more visually appealing representation of the globe compared to other map projections like the Mercator projection. The Robinson map is commonly used in atlases and textbooks.
What is the length of Atlants?
The Atlantic Ocean covers an area of 106,400,000 square miles. This ocean is the second largest in the world and covers 20 percent of the Earth.
The Atlantic ocean covers the greatest area of all the world oceans?
No. It is the pacific
Whay is the largest ocean?
The ocean having the largest surface area is the Pacific Ocean. It covers about one-third of the Earth's surface and has an area of 63. 8 million square miles.
