Map projections

edit

These are the nine map projections by german cartographer Karlheinz Wagner (1906 - 1985). All images are based on the Natural Earth II equirectangular map by Tom Patterson and were created using NASA’s G.Projector software.

I've provided two different sets: The bright colors set is using the original Natural Earth colors, suitable as background for further data visualisation. The dark colors set is suitable for standalone use, i.e. showing the map by itself.
