Map Projection


This week in Earth Science, I learned about Maps and Mapping, and I like the Conic Map Projection. This map is good when you're looking at a small area.It can be made by wrapping a cone of map around a globe. Conic maps are used to make road maps and weather maps. I don't travel by planes or trains [why? go ask Wall Street] only by car so a conic map would be okay with me.
