What are two map projection?
Two common map projections are Mercator and the Robinson Projection.
Would Greenland be smaller on a Mercator or a Robinson map projection?
Greenland appears larger on a Mercator map projection compared to a Robinson map projection. The Mercator projection distorts the size of land masses as they near the poles, resulting in Greenland appearing much larger than it actually is.
Mercator projection The travels of Marco Polo Ibn Idrisi's world map Robinson projection Arrange these events from the history of cartography in the order in which they occurred?
no
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 map would a sailor use?

What type of map is a Mercator map?
Mercator is not a map, but a map projection, i.e. a way of representing the continents on a map. The Mercator projection is only accurate between 30 degrees north and south latitude. The further away you go from that point, the greater the exaggeration.
How do Mercator Robinson and Conic projections differ?
Mercator and conic projections are different because conic projections have a cone/triangle shape and they are the same because both are type of maps..... I know really bad answer but I hope this helped
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).
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.
