HOBO-DYER EQUAL AREA PLACEMAT WORLD MAP

Hobo-Dyer Cylindrical Equal Area Projection (11" x 17") - Laminated The Hobo-Dyer Projection (HDP) takes its place among important map projections. This new HDP map belongs to the family of Cylindrical Equal Area projections in which the latitude and longitude lines form a rectangular grid. Other projections in this family include the Lambert, Gall, Behrmann, Edwards and Peters. The HDP retains qualities of the other equal area cylindrical projections, but is more visually satisfying. Created by British cartographer, Mick Dyer, the map was derived by modifying the 1910 Behrmann projection
