The Mollweide projection is an equal-area map projection, which accurately represents the relative sizes of landmasses, making it useful for statistical and geographical analyses. However, its major drawback is the distortion of shapes, particularly near the edges of the map, which can make it less visually appealing and harder to interpret for navigation. Additionally, the projection may compress areas at the poles, leading to further misrepresentation of certain regions. Overall, while it serves specific analytical purposes well, it sacrifices shape fidelity for area accuracy.
