   Feb 18, 2011 · The Winkel tripel world map projection. Winkel tripel fits into a special class of compromise projections that mitigate extreme distortion of any geometrical property (shape, area, distance, direction) that is a necessary result of projecting the spherical Earth onto a flat surface (such as a piece of paper or computer screen) by ...

   Apr 16, 2021 · More useful to those uninterested in setting sail is the Winkel Tripel projection, which is often used in magazines. Created by German cartographer Oswald Winkel in 1921, it represents the poles more accurately, but there’s still some distortion and the same issues apply to the Pacific.

   The Winkel projection is a group of three map projections proposed in 1921 by the German cartographer Oswald Winkel (7 January 1874 – 18 July 1953). Winkel projections use the arithmetic mean of the equirectangular projection and other projections.

   What is a Winkel tripel map?

   • Uses: The Winkel Tripel is a compromise projection that is neither conformal nor equivalent. While just about every point in a Winkel Tripel map suffers from a small amount of each possible type of distortion, just about no point in such a map suffers from major distortions of any kind.

   Does Winkel tripel have area distortion?

   • The only portions of the Winkel Tripel projection that suffer from severe area distortion are the polar regions near the east and west edges of the map. Conformality: The Winkel Tripel projection is not conformal; shapes are not depicted as accurately as they would be in a true conformal projection.
