Map projection: Map projection is the algorithmic representation of one surface (e.g., that of the Earth) on another (e.g., a sheet of paper). [100%] 2024-01-13
Map projection: In cartography, map projection is the term used to describe a broad set of transformations employed to represent the two-dimensional curved surface of a globe on a plane. In a map projection, coordinates, often expressed as latitude and longitude ...

Polyhedral map projection: A polyhedral map projection is a map projection based on a spherical polyhedron. Typically, the polyhedron is overlaid on the globe, and each face of the polyhedron is transformed to a polygon or other shape in the plane.

Stereographic map projection: The stereographic projection, also known as the planisphere projection or the azimuthal conformal projection, is a conformal map projection whose use dates back to antiquity. Like the orthographic projection and gnomonic projection, the stereographic projection is an azimuthal projection, and ...

Conformal map projection: In cartography, a conformal map projection is one in which every angle between two curves that cross each other on Earth (a sphere or an ellipsoid) is preserved in the image of the projection, i.e. the projection is a ... [81%] 2022-03-23 [Conformal projections]
Projection (business): A projection is a financial estimate, prepared by a business, if certain events occur. For example, a business may run a projection of estimated sales if they increase or decrease the price of their product. (Business) [73%] 2023-06-24 [Business] [Finance]...
Projection: A term related to the operation of projecting, which can be defined as follows (see Fig.): One chooses an arbitrary point $ S $ of the space as the centre of projection and a plane $ \Pi ^ \prime $ not passing through $ S $ as ... (Mathematics) [73%] 2023-11-04
Projection (alchemy): Projection was the ultimate goal of Western alchemy. Once the philosopher's stone or powder of projection had been created, the process of projection would be used to transmute a lesser substance into a higher form; often lead into gold.

Projection (measure theory): In measure theory, projection maps often appear when working with product (Cartesian) spaces: The product sigma-algebra of measurable spaces is defined to be the finest such that the projection mappings will be measurable.
