The equidistant cylindrical projection (also known as the equirectangular projection) is a simple x-y Cartesian map projection where lines of latitude and longitude are represented by straight, equally spaced horizontal and vertical lines. By convention, maps are plotted north up, west to the left, and east to the right. This orientation ...

In [340], [341], projection transformation is used to adapt existing rectilinear image datasets into equirectangular ones for learning panoramic depth estimation. They also leverage ring...

The equirectangular projection (also called the equidistant cylindrical projection or la carte parallélogrammatique projection), and which includes the special case of the plate carrée projection (also called the geographic projection, lat/lon projection, or plane chart), is a simple map projection attributed to Marinus of Tyre, who Ptolemy ...

The basemap mosaic is mapped in the equirectangular projection at a resolution of 10 meters per pixel requiring approximately 39 gigabytes of digital storage. The mosaic is partitioned into 887 tiles 3 degrees by three degrees in size.

Eight of the tiles are equirectangular projections that encompass 60° latitude by 90° longitude. In addition, two polar stereographic projections are available for each pole from ±60° to the pole.

These textures represent real planetary maps in equirectangular projection. You can use them in 3D rendering, or just open them in any image viewer and explore the surface of planets :)

2017年4月5日 · In the followings we discuss how these parameters are defined and used on different types of planetary bodies, including rocky planets, satellites, irregular bodies and gas giants. The view of a...

2016年5月23日 · A map-like view of the Earth shows insolation (sunlight intensity) over land during the August 21, 2017 total solar eclipse. This equirectangular projection is suitable for spherical displays and for spherical mapping in 3D animation software.

2012年2月13日 · Equirectangular projections can show the entire vertical and horizontal angle of view up to 360 degrees. Cylindrical image projections are similar to equirectangular, except it also vertically stretches objects as they get closer to the north and south poles, with infinite vertical stretching occurring at the poles (therefore no horizontal line ...

2010年3月6日 · Constructs an Equirectangular geographic projection, also known as Equidistant Cylindrical, Plate Carree and Rectangular. The projected globe is spherical, not ellipsoidal. Indicates whether this projection should be treated as continuous with itself. If true, the 2D map will appear to scroll continuously horizontally.
