Interrupted Sinusoidal Map Projection
Requires a Wolfram Notebook System
Interact on desktop, mobile and cloud with the free Wolfram Player or other Wolfram Language products.
Interrupted world maps cut the surface of the globe into a number of gores along the equator and apply a projection to each part separately. This shows less deformation for each gore than would occur for the whole map. However, gaps in the map are created in parts away from the equator.
