Mercator Projection; Mercator map projection; Mercatur projection; Mercator chart; Mercator map; Mercator's projection
The Mercator projection () is a cylindrical map projection presented by Flemish geographer and cartographer Gerardus Mercator in 1569. It became the standard map projection for navigation because it is unique in representing north as up and south as down everywhere while preserving local directions and shapes.

Mercator Projection; Mercator map projection; Mercatur projection; Mercator chart; Mercator map; Mercator's projection
¦ noun a world map projection made on to a cylinder in such a way that all parallels of latitude have the same length as the equator.
Origin
from Mercator, Latinized name of the 16th-cent. Flemish geographer Gerhard Kremer.
Transverse Mercator projection         
  • The normal aspect of a tangent cylindrical projection of the sphere
  • Spherical Normal (equatorial) Mercator (truncated at ''y'' = ±π, corresponding to approximately 85 degrees).
  • Ellipsoidal transverse Mercator: a finite projection.
  • Spherical transverse Mercator (truncated at ''x'' = ±''π'' in units of Earth radius).
  • The angle of convergence
  • Transverse mercator geometry

THE TRANSVERSE MERCATOR PROJECTION IS THE TRANSVERSE ASPECT OF THE STANDARD (OR NORMAL) MERCATOR PROJECTION
Transverse Mercator; Universal transverse Mercator projection; Gauss–Krüger coordinate system; Gauss-Kruger coordinate system; Gauss-Krueger coordinate system; Gauss-Kruger Projection; Gauss-Krüger coordinate system; Gauss–Kruger coordinate system; Gauss conformal; Trans Mercator projection; Gauss–Krüger map projection; Gauss-Krüger map projection
The transverse Mercator map projection (TM, TMP) is an adaptation of the standard Mercator projection. The transverse version is widely used in national and international mapping systems around the world, including the Universal Transverse Mercator.
Ejemplos de uso de Mercator projection
1. The Mercator projection, which most of us grew up with and have internalised as our mental map of the globe, flattens out the world in order to fit it on to a page and as such exaggerates the size of areas far from the equator.
