    Peters projection

    • IPA[ˈpiːtəz prəˌdʒɛkʃn]

    英式

    • n.
      a world map projection in which areas are shown in correct proportion at the expense of distorted shape, using a rectangular decimal grid to replace latitude and longitude. It was devised in 1973 to be a fairer representation of equatorial (i.e. mainly developing) countries, whose area is under-represented by the usual projections such as Mercator's.
