Equal area projection - Equal area projection
It is sometimes called the Lambert projection after its inventor, J. H. Lambert, and the Schmidt projection after W. Schmidt, who first used it in structural petrology. This projection is designed to represent, when analyzing the orientation and relative positions of planes in three-dimensional space on a flat surface, equal areas on a spherical surface that are set are represented equally on the projection surface without being distorted by position.
