30 sie 2005 · The northern hemisphere of Enceladus is seen in this polar stereographic map, mosaicked from the best-available Cassini and Voyager clear-filter images. The map is centered on the north pole and surface coverage extends to the equator. Gridlines show latitude and longitude in 30-degree increments.
The azimuthal equidistant projection is an azimuthal map projection. It has the useful properties that all points on the map are at proportionally correct distances from the center point, and that all points on the map are at the correct azimuth (direction) from the center point.
Projection Wizard is a web application that helps cartographers select an appropriate projection for their map. Depending on the extent and the distortion property of the map, the application returns a list of appropriate map projections with additional projection parameters if necessary.
27 lut 2017 · The Mysteries of the First-Ever Map of the North Pole Gerard Mercator’s 16th-century attempt at mapping the Arctic includes such guesses as a giant whirlpool and polar pygmies.
14 mar 2020 · EPSG:3413 Projected coordinate system for Northern hemisphere - north of 60°N onshore and offshore, including Arctic. Geodetically preferred alternative to NSIDC PS North (see CRS code 3411). Polar research.
22 cze 2024 · A polar projection map is an azimuthal projection designed to display the Arctic and Antarctic areas. It is based on a plane perpendicular to the Earth’s axis in contact with the North or South Pole.
NSIDC's Polar Stereographic Projection was originally designed to be optimal for sea ice applications, though it is now used for many other products. Northern Hemisphere (left) and Southern Hemisphere (right) NSIDC Polar Stereographic Projection coverage maps.
