An Innovative World Map Projection

Abstract

A map projection suitable for many thematic maps of the world not involving area-related data is an oblique orthographic projection of E. N. Gilbert's Two-World Conformal Globe, centered at 5° N. latitude and 5° E. longitude. Although the result is neither conformal nor equal-area, it provides a rounded view of almost the entire world, essentially uninterrupted.
