public class TLcdLambertConformal
extends ALcdConic

Lambert Conformal Conic projection.

Introduction

A Lambert conformal conic projection is a conic map projection. It superimposes a cone over the sphere of the Earth, with two reference parallels secant to the globe and intersecting it.

Properties

• Conformal.
• The scale of the projection is true along the two given standard parallels.
• Parallels are unequally spaced arcs of concentric circles.
• Meridians are equally spaced arcs of circles cutting the parallels at right angles.
• This projection is used for maps of regions with a dominant east-west shape.

Example

Sample code

 ILcdProjection projection =
     new TLcdLambertConformal(42.0, 57.0, 0.0, 50.0);
 

Implementation aspects

The equations of the lambert conformal conic projection are taken from [Snyder1987].
