商品描述

This book offers a much-needed critical approach to the intelligent use of the wide variety of map projections that are rapidly and inexpensively available today. It also discusses the distortions that are immanent in any map projection.

A well-chosen map projection is one in which extreme distortions are smaller than those in any other projection used to map the same area and in which the map properties match its purpose. Written by leading experts in the field, including W. Tobler, F.C. Kessler, S.E. Battersby, M.P. Finn, K.C. Clarke, V.S. Tikunov, H. Hargitai, B. Jenny and N. Frančula. This book is designed for use by laymen.

The book editors are M. Lapaine and E.L. Usery, Chair and Vice-Chair, respectively, of the ICA Commission on Map Projections for the period 2011-2015.

一個精心選擇的地圖投影是指其極端失真小於用於映射相同區域的任何其他投影，並且地圖特性與其目的相符。本書由該領域的領先專家撰寫，包括 W. Tobler、F.C. Kessler、S.E. Battersby、M.P. Finn、K.C. Clarke、V.S. Tikunov、H. Hargitai、B. Jenny 和 N. Frančula。本書旨在供非專業人士使用。
