The Tobler hyperelliptical projection is a family of pseudocylindrical projections used for mapping the earth.It is named for Waldo R. Tobler, its inventor. It is an equal-area projection. In the normal aspect, the parallels of latitude are parallel straight lines whose spacing is calculated to provide the equal-area property; the meridians of longitude (except for the central meridian, which is a straight line perpendicular to the lines representing parallels) are cu...
Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. The Tobler hyperelliptical projection is a family of pseudocylindrical projections used for mapping the earth.It is named for Waldo R. Tobler, its inventor. It is an equal-area projection. In the normal aspect, the parallels of latitude are parallel straight lines whose spacing is calculated to provide the equal-area property; the meridians of longitude (except for the central meridian, which is a straight line perpendicular to the lines representing parallels) are curves of the form a x + b y = 1 (with a dependent on longitude and b constant for a given map). When = 2 the projection becomes the Mollweide projection; when =1 it becomes the Collignon projection; the limiting case as infinity is the Cylindrical equal-area projection (Lambert cylindrical equal-area, Gall Peters, or Behrmann projection). Values of that are favored by Tobler and others are generally greater than 2.
