C’est en anglais, c’est vraiment drôle et très intelligent. J’ai traduit le texte à la fin du billet, avec l’aide précieuse de Bertrand qui a d’ailleurs mis sur son blog SIG974 une version graphique en français. Et pour les ignares qui comme moi ne connaissaient pas la projection Waterman Butterfly, jetez donc un coup d’œil ici. MERCATOR Vous n’êtes pas vraiment un spécialiste de cartographie. VAN DER GRINTEN Vous n’êtes pas une personne compliquée. ROBINSON Vous portez par tous les temps une confortable paire de baskets. DYMAXION Vous aimez Isaac Asimov, le XML et les chaussures à orteils. WINKEL-TRIPEL Le National Geographic a adopté la Winkel-Tripel en 1998 mais vous étiez un fan de la W-T bien avant qu’il s’y mette. GOODE HOMOLOSINE On dit que cartographier la surface terrestre c’est comme aplatir une peau d’orange, ce qui ne vous semble pas très difficile. PLATE CARREE Vous pensez que celle là est correcte.

Car Rentals from Budget World Sunlight Map Watch the sun rise and set all over the world on this real-time, computer-generated illustration of the earth's patterns of sunlight and darkness. The clouds are updated daily with current weather satellite imagery. The Mercator projection used here is one way of looking at the spherical earth as a flat map. Used since the 16th century for navigation, straight lines on this map can be used accurately as compass bearings but the size and shape of continents are distorted. Also available is a semi-realistic view of dawn and dusk from far above the Earth, a look at the moon, and information about how this works.
Cheap Flights, Cheap Hotels, Price Predictor - Bing Travel Gridded Population of the World - GPW v3 Introduction Note: "Gridded Population of the World, v4" is now available and supersedes GPWv3. GPWv4 provides gridded population estimates with an output resolution of 30 arc-seconds (approximately 1 km at the equator) for the years 2000, 2005, 2010, 2015, and 2020 based on the results of the 2010 round of censuses, which occurred between 2005 and 2014. For more details about GPWv4 and to access the new data see GPWv3 depicts the distribution of human population across the globe. GPWv3 provides globally consistent and spatially explicit human population information and data for use in research, policy making, and communications. Population data estimates are provided for 1990, 1995, and 2000, and projected (in 2004, when GPWv3 was released) to 2005, 2010, and 2015.
Map Collection Digital Maps The Harvard Map Collection is one of the oldest and largest collections of cartographic materials in the United States with over 500,000 items. Resources range from 16th century globes to modern maps and geographic information systems (GIS) layers. A selection of our materials has been digitally imaged and is offered both as true picture images and georeferenced copies. This Virtual Collection includes those maps and atlases that are available through the Harvard Image Delivery Service. Only a small portion of the Map Collection has been cataloged and included in the HOLLIS catalog and an even smaller selection are included in this virtual collection as digital images.
