pseudocylindrical-1.0.0

Base class of all pseudocylindrical projections.

Description

Pseudocylindrical projections are like cylindrical projections except the parallels of latitude are projected at diminishing lengths toward the polar regions in order to reduce lateral distortion there. Consequently, the meridians are curved.
