Cartographic Science. A Compendium of Map Projections, with Derivations
Year: 2007 Language: english Author: Donald Fenna Genre: Manual Publisher: CRC Press ISBN: 978-0-8493-8181-2 Format: PDF Quality: eBook Pages count: 864 Description: This manual is a comprehensive reference of the science of cartography, from basic projecting to advanced transformations. The book is a compilation of more than a hundred map projections, from classic conics to contemporary transformations using complex variables. Starting from well known geometric projecting onto a plan, cylinder, and cone, and then progressing through several layers of mathematics to reach modern projections, the author maximizes the application of one layer of complex mathematics before continuing on to the next. He also supplies numerous one-page tutorials that review terms and methodologies, helping minimize the challenges of unfamiliar mathematical territory.
