Mercator map projection

• rectangular in shape

• Used mostly for marine transportation

• Shows true direction between places best

• Land size is distorted or misrepresented near north and south poles

Robinson map projection

• Rectangular in shape with rounded edges

• Most commonly used map projection

• Continents are shown most truest in size and shape

• North and south poles are flattened

Winkel tripel map projection

• rounder in shape

• Minimal or small amounts of distortion in size of land distance, and direction

• Distortion near North and south poles latitude lines are curved

Goode homolosine projection

• interrupted equal area map projection

• Minimizes area distortion, but sacrifices, accurate shape, shapes, distances, and directions, especially in oceans

• Continents connected breaking up, oceans

• Ideal for showing global distribution of things

DTM stage 1

• no country in stage

• HBR / HDR

• Very low/zero population growth

• Pre -industrialized societies

Goode homosoline

DTM stage 2

• HBR and rapidly falling DR

• Rapid population growth

• Better sanitation, medicine, etc

• Industrial state

• Most flights from LDC’s to MDC’s

Mercator

Robinson

galls-Peterson

equal-area map projection. Like all equal-area projections, it distorts most shapes. It is a cylindrical equal-area projection with latitudes 45° north and south as the regions on the map that have no distortion.

Peterson

Winkel tripel

DTM stage 3

• Falling BR, falling DR

• Slowing pop. growth/more urbanization

• Woman’s roles/education increase

DTM Stage 4

• Low BR, low DR

• Stable or ZPG growth

• Developed nations

DTM Stage 5

• BR falls below DR, negative NIR

• Population decline= aging population
