- Van_der_Grinten_projection abstract "The van der Grinten projection is a compromise map projection that is neither equal-area nor conformal. It projects the entire Earth into a circle, though the polar regions are subject to extreme distortion. The projection was the first of four proposed by Alphons J. van der Grinten in 1904, and, unlike most projections, is an arbitrary geometric construction on the plane. It was made famous when the National Geographic Society adopted it as their reference map of the world from 1922 until 1988.The geometric construction given by van der Grinten can be written algebraically:where takes the sign of , takes the sign of andShould it occur that , thenSimilarly, if or , thenIn all cases, is the latitude, is the longitude, and is the central meridian of the projection.".
