Remarks | Arithmetic mean of the equirectangular (with φ0 ≈ 50°28´) and Aitoff projections for the x values, and of the equirectangular and the Aitoff-transformed version of a new azimuthal projection for the y values. Originally presented in a thread in the mapthematics forum. Also see the blogpost The Winkel-Denner Projections. |
Arithmetic mean of the equirectangular (with φ0 = 40°) and Aitoff projections for the x values, and of the equirectangular and (scaled up) Hammer projections for the y values. Originally presented in a thread in the mapthematics forum. Also see the blogpost The Winkel-Denner Projections. |
