An efficient technique for creating a continuum of equal-area map projections

Equivalence (the equal-area property of a map projection) is important to some categories of maps. However, unlike for conformal projections, completely general techniques have not been developed for creating new, computationally reasonable equal-area projections. The literature describes many specific equal-area projections and a few equal-area projections that are more or less configurable, but flexibility is still sparse. This work develops a tractable technique for generating a continuum of equal-area projections between two chosen equal-area projections. The technique gives map projection designers unlimited choice in tailoring the projection to the need. The technique is particularly suited to maps that dynamically adapt optimally to changing scale and region of interest, such as required for online maps.     

地图投影反解变换的一种新方法

通常地图投影反解变换有2种方法,即多项式拟合法和投影方程解析法.多项式法利用已知控制点的坐标对应关系,通过最小二乘法拟合求解地图投影反解变换的多项式函数,其优点是反解模型与地图投影无关,算法具有通用性,缺点是反算精度较低.解析法根据地图投影正算公式,在一定条件下通过解方程求得地图投影反解变换解析式,其优点是反解变换精度高,缺点是解法复杂.本文利用计算数学方法,根据地图投影变换的基本数学原理,提出了一种新的地图投影反解变换方法,双向迭代逼近法(BDIRA).具有反解变换精度高、收敛速度快、算法通用和GIS软件编程实现方便等特点.

Real-time raster projection for web maps

The virtual globe is the default visualization for Digital Earth applications, but it can only show one half of the Earth. This article introduces user-adjustable, on-the-fly projection of georeferenced raster images for web mapping and web GIS applications. This technique allows users to center a map on arbitrary locations, while still seeing the entire Earth surface. Modern web mapping libraries can apply map projection transformations to vector data in the browser, but they do not currently support the projection of raster images at interactive frame rates. We use the cross-platform WebGL (Web Graphics Library) graphics pipeline for hardware-accelerated projection of raster data in web browsers. Two algorithmic techniques – inverse per-fragment projection, and combined forward per-triangle and inverse per-fragment projection – for georeferenced raster imagery are documented. The resulting raster maps combine the ease of use and flexibility of interactive virtual globes with the ability to show the entire Earth. The adjustable projection of raster imagery allows users to observe global phenomena that are difficult to visualize on virtual globes or traditional maps with static projections.     

An adaptable equal-area pseudoconic map projection

Equivalence (the equal-area property of a map projection) is important to some categories of maps. However, unlike conformal projections, completely general techniques do not exist for creating new, computationally reasonable equal-area projections. The literature describes many specific equal-area projections and a few equal-area projections that are more or less configurable, but flexibility is still sparse. This work describes a new, highly configurable equal-area projection system consisting of arcs of concentric circles, placing it in the pseudoconic class. The system uses a novel technique to hybridize the Bonne pseudoconic projection and the Albers conic projection, subsuming many existing projections as degenerate cases. With the resulting system and the technique used to develop it, map projection designers will have greater choice in tailoring the projection to the need. The system may be particularly suited to maps that dynamically adapt to changing scale and region of interest, such as required for online maps.

Mixed cylindric map projections of the ellipsoid of revolution

The mixed spherical map projections of equiareal, cylindric type are based upon the Lambert projection and the sinusoidal Sanson–Flamsteed projection. These cylindric and pseudo-cylindric map projections of the sphere are generalized to the ellipsoid of revolution (biaxial ellipsoid). They are used in consequence by two lemmas to generate a horizontal and a vertical weighted mean of equiareal cylindric map projections of the ellipsoid of revolution. Its left–right deformation analysis via further results leads to the left–right principal stretches/eigenvalues and left–right eigenvectors/eigenspace, as well as the maximal left–right angular distortion for these new mixed cylindric map projections of ellipsoidal type. Detailed illustrations document the cartographic synergy of mixed cylindric map projections. Received: 23 April 1996 / Accepted: 19 April 1997

An iterative approach for inverse transformation of map projections

ABSTRACT

Map projections are given by forward transformation equations. Inverse transformation is derived from forward transformation analytically or numerically. In this paper, a numerical approach for inverse transformation of map projections is proposed, which is based on numerical differentiation and Newton–Raphson root finding method. This approach can facilitate the program developments for map projections when inverse transformation is needed. Numerical differentiation is tested with three map projections. It is seen that seven-digit precision or more can be reached. Boundary conditions and initial guess problem in inverse transformation are discussed. In terms of initial guess, map projections are divided into three categories, and appropriate initial guess values for cylindrical, pseudocylindrical, azimuthal, and conical projections in normal aspect are suggested. Newton–Raphson method with numerical differentiation is tested with 20 different map projections by using test data sets. The results show that the proposed approach is applicable if appropriate initial guess is available.

针对球体横墨卡托投影与基于地球椭球体的导航设备结合使用存在误差以及传统椭球横墨卡托投影依据经差分带不适用于极区的问题,在分析双重投影可用于极区存在计算奇异和计算溢出问题的基础上,研究了一种基于双重投影的横墨卡托投影极区应用改进方法。首先利用函数等效变换和经线长度比计算公式推导出椭球投影到球体上的坐标变换、球体半径和长度比计算公式,然后利用分段函数的方法研究了球体横墨卡托投影计算公式,综合两个阶段给出了完整的坐标变换公式和长度比计算公式,最后推导了子午线收敛角计算公式。理论分析和算例仿真表明,该改进方法能够解决极区投影计算奇异和计算溢出问题,近极点地区长度变形较小,且与导航设备采用的地球模型一致,可消除由于地球模型不同引起的误差,提高航海绘算精度。     

地图投影变换浅析

通过研究得出,将地球上各种地理事物与现象表示到平面上,需要采取一系列数学变换,才能使地面上的点与平面上的相应点建立起对应关系,从而才有可能反映出它们的位置、距离、方向、面积、形状及数量大小关系。地图之所以能在平面上反映出球面上事物与现象的空间准确位置和相互关系,就是由于它经过了地图投影的转换。通过研究地图投影变换问题,可以为基于离散网格的数据管理和建模应用提供很好的投影变换基础。
