10 Cylindrical Map Projections
Cylindrical map projections are made by projecting from the globe onto the surface of an enclosing cylinder, and then unwrapping the cylinder to make a flat surface Mercator
Transverse Mercator
Cassini-Soldner

14 Transverse Mercator Projection Cylindrical (Transverse) Conformal Central meridian and equator are straight lines Other meridians and parallels are complex curves For areas with larger north-south extent than east-west extent
![Page 15: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)

18 Conic Projections
For a conic projection, the projection surface is cone shaped
Locations are projected onto the
surface of the cone which is then unwrapped and laid flat
![Page 19: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
19 Lambert Conformal Conic Projection Conical, Conformal Parallels are concentric arcs Meridians are straight lines cutting parallels at right angles. Scale is true along two standard parallels, normally, or along
just one. It projects a great circle as a straight line – much better than
Mercator Used for maps of countries and regions with predominant
east west expanse Used for plane coordinate system (SPCS) in USA

22 Polyconic Projection
In this projection all parallels are projected without any distortion
Scale is exact along each parallel and central meridian.
Parallels are arcs of circles but are not concentric. It is neither conformal nor equal area.
![Page 23: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
23 Polyconic Projection contd. Central meridian and equator are straight lines;
all other meridians are curves. Central Meridian cuts all parallels at 90 degrees Free of distortion only along the central
meridian. It has rolling fit with adjacent sheets in EW
direction. Used in India for all topographical mapping on
1:250,000 and larger scales.
![Page 24: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

Three partial equidistant conic maps, each based on a different standard parallel, therefore wrapped on a different tangent cone (shown on the right with a quarter removed plus tangency parallels). When the number of cones increases to infinity, each strip infinitesimally narrow, the result is a continuous polyconic projection

The normal aspect for these projections is the North or South Pole. locations are

29 Grids
Rectangular grids have been developed for the use of Surveyors. Each point can be designated merely by its ( x , y ) co-ordinates. Grid systems are normally divided into zones so that distortion and
variation of scale within any one zone are kept small. The UTM grid State Plane Coordinate System (SPCS)

35 Projection Parameters To define the coordinate system completely, it is not
sufficient simply to name the kind of projection used, it is also necessary to specify the projection parameters.
The set of parameters required depends on the kind of projection.
The central meridian of the projection for cylindrical, where it touches the ellipsoid surface.

37 Choosing a map Projection The choice of map projection is made to give the most
accurate possible representation of the geographic information, given that some distortion is inevitable. The choice depends on:
The location Shape Size of the region to be mapped The theme or purpose of the map

40 Implications for GIS
Knowing the datum and reference ellipsoid information is very important.
For converting the maps of one system to another system.
When incorporating maps or GPS field data into a GIS
![Page 41: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
41 Coordinate System Need to describe the location, i.e. referencing
network by which positions are measured and computed.
Relative location (with respect to some other place). E.g. Street address.
• Absolute location (with respect to the Earth as a whole).
E.g. Geographic coordinates

43 REFERENCE ELLIPSOID All the measurements are done on the surface of the
Earth. Various computations are required to determine the coordinates, distances, area etc.
The surface of the earth is irregular and therefore unsuitable for such computations. We need a smooth mathematical surface for these computations.
The best mathematical figure that can represent the earth is an ellipsoid. Ellipsoid is used as reference surface.
![Page 44: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
44 TYPES OF ELLIPSOIDS
1. Best-Fit Ellipsoid/Local Ellipsoid: based on the measurements within a region, so it best fits that region only. The centre of such reference ellipsoid does not coincide with the centre of gravity of the Earth.
Example : Everest Ellipsoid
2. Geocentric Ellipsoid: The centre of geocentric ellipsoid coincides with the centre of the Earth. This type of the ellipsoid can be used worldwide.
Example : WGS 84 ellipsoid

46 DATUM
Datum is a model that describes the position, direction, and scale relationships of a reference surface to positions on the surface of Earth
Indian Datum WGS 84 ITRF
![Page 47: Map projection in gis](https://reader035.vdocuments.net/reader035/viewer/2022081521/587ca97e1a28ab356c8b62d7/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
47 Scale
Only on a globe is a scale constant. It is impossible to have a constant scale in different areas of a map (but we can get close)
Map has fixed scale but GIS is scale-less, i.e. data may be enlarged or reduced to any size.
However, if we go too far from the scale at which map was made before it was captured into the GIS, problems of scale appear.

Map Distance Scale = -----------------------------
Ground Distance
Representative fraction (RF) is the ratio of distances on the map to the same distance on the ground. E.g., 1 : 1,000,000 or 1/1,000,000
Statement (verbal) scale expresses the ratio in words. for 1 : 1,000,000 : “One millimeter to one kilometer”
Bar scale is a linear graphical scale drawn on the map
