The Plate Carrée projection, which displays geographic coordinates in a simple rectangular grid, offers several advantages, including ease of use for map-making and straightforward visualization of data. However, its disadvantages include significant distortion of area and shape, particularly near the poles, making it less suitable for accurate representations of landmass sizes and shapes. This projection can mislead users about the relative sizes of countries and regions when viewed at larger scales. Overall, while it is user-friendly, accuracy in geographic representation is compromised.
