public class TLcdEllipsoidalEquidistantCylindrical extends ALcdCylindrical
Equidistant Cylindrical projection that uses ellipsoidal calculations. See TLcdEquidistantCylindrical for a version of this projection that uses spherical calculations.

Introduction

The Equidistant Cylindrical projection is basically a linear transformation from lat-lon coordinates to XY world coordinates. If the equator is made the standard parallel this projection is also known as Plate Carree or Simple Cylindrical.

Properties

  • Neither equal-area nor conformal.
  • Meridians and parallels are straight lines. They are spaced equally and intersect each other at right angles.
  • Poles are projected as lines.
