Most digital maps like Google & Apple use the Web Mercator projection. It’s convenient for navigation, but it massively distorts the world: Greenland looks as big as Africa. 🌍 It’s time to see the world as it truly is. 👉 https://t.co/rp9ZnMTsif #WorldMaps #WebMercator

One more iteration on the hachure app ... added and straightened a few things, i.e.: - Allow spatial references other than WebMercator. - Add better handling of varying scales and cellsizes. - Add option to generate plain lines rather than arrows. https://t.co/Ml24QgQgJT

学生たちに課題として出したウェブメルカトル投影されたXYZタイルの世界地図を地球儀に戻す逆投影変換について NotebookLM に解説してもらいました。なかなか良いコメントしてくれています。これがヒントになってくれるとうれしい。 https://t.co/pjIa9cKsFh #WebMercator #Projection #Globe

Fantastic example of an @ArcGISStoryMaps by Josef Münzberger, with non-#webmercator #map. Oh, yes! It can be done. #ICC2023 #mapprojection #mapprojections #mapprojectionsarehard https://t.co/Zr1WlNMn7N

#30DayMapChallenge Day19: Projections WebMercator → Ecquirectangular → Globe Planeジオメトリを64^2分割で作って、その頂点座標を移動することで実現。 Shader書くでも実現できそう(そっちのほうが軽いはず?) #threejs

This would not have been possible without this great repo which allows us to add GCJ02 webmercator to openlayers. https://t.co/fRcN7Okmgu

Drinking coffee and reading ‘Visualizing the Distortion of #WebMercator Maps with an Orange Peel’… … Yeah, it’s that kind of week ;-) #mapping #geospatial https://t.co/5iMKftBy9H

Does anybody know how to apply the Chinese #WebMercator projection with a pseudo #GCJ-02 datum to load slippy XYZ tilemaps in #OpenLayers 8.1+ ??? 🗺️💻 https://t.co/3QtMEoZV09

My colleague Andrew Skinner from ArcGIS @LivingAtlas team shares how to create your own basemap in popular alternatives to the ubiquitous and dreaded #WebMercator.

The WebMercator projection is, like every other projection a tradeoff between many factors. WebMercator is very suitable for global maps, and especially for digital maps, since the world (well, most of it) can be fit into a single square tile on the root level. 1/

Dont feel like you are stuck with #WebMercator - follow this handy @LivingAtlas guide and make your own based on a more suitable projection. My favorite is #WinkelTripel https://t.co/cfQE98Glfr #ArcGISPro - tip off from @deepseadawn

@BarkJack_ @BakkenShale @FlatEarthZone @Google Practically everybody using digital navigation uses a map in the WebMercator projection (same as Google maps), speaking of billions of people. Dont you think it would have become public if those maps did not work?

@Totocapo1975447 @xusTIrettiwt @invertedworld9 ... something you would likely also not be able to see in consumer applications using i.e. the WebMercator (Auxiliary Sphere) projection. It just does not matter for those applications. Everybody expecting more from GIS knows about those limits and uses software more suitable ...

@s_pnmrnko Interesting! Will have to do projections other than WebMercator first though.
