Goode homolosine map projection

Unassessed geography articles and Unknown-importance geography articles. Use the following procedure:. Goode's homolosine projection is a
combination of the Mollweide and sinusoidal projections. I have created a stylization of the same data with much brighter water areas and a light
graticule to contrast. For the land-oriented version, the straight longitude values are and 30 in the northern hemisphere and , , 20, and in the
southern hemisphere. Also called Goode homolosine projection. Philbrick's original maps have borders zigzagging along graticule lines; he also
repeated portions of Alaska to keep it unsplit, and sometimes left out Antarctica. There are six straight longitude lines due to the interrupted nature
of the projection. It is absolutely essential to check the Clip Coordinates box in the Projection dialog whenever using such projections. Goode's
homolosine map projection is designed to minimize distortion for the entire world. Direction Local angles are correct along the central meridians of
the lobes and the equator in the sinusoidal portion but distorted elsewhere. The most common form, seen here, interrupts the South Pacific, the
North and South Atlantic separately , the Indian Ocean, and the entire th meridian. In an arrangement slightly more complex than that shown here,
the result became popular but was eventually superseded by the true homolosine projection. I am deleting them now. Dealing with the separate
conversion domain lobes of an interrupted projection requires a manual approach to creating graticules, since the graticule lines normally extend
through the blank space between lobes. Although best known for the homolosine projection and the initiator of Goode's School Atlas, he taught
some of the first courses on thematic cartography and graphics at Chicago. Bonne Bottomley Polyconic Werner. Related Topics List of supported

comprises two perfect circles. Project the drawing into the desired interrupted projection, making sure to check Clip Coordinates. Compare the

with the homolosine and other pseudocylindricals, Philbrick's interruptions do not cut from poles to the Equator, which creates additional direction
breaks besides those along the fusion parallel. Therefore, the simple form with symmetrical central meridians comprises two perfect circles. In an
