The Use of Scale Factors in Map Analysis An Elementary Approach
Throughout human history there has been a close connection between mathematics and cartography to the benefit of both disciplines. Yet most undergraduate students in both areas are unaware of it. In this paper, itself a cooperative effort between a cartographer and a mathematician, we hope to show that mathematical ideas available to many first-year college students can be used to analyze properties of some commonly used map projections. Specific…
