Spherical great circle arcs based indicators for evaluating distortions of map projections

Map projection is an important research content of cartography. However, distortions are inevitable for any map projection. To evaluate the distortions of map projections, averaged ratio between complementary profiles and spherical great circle arcs based shape and area metrics are proposed. By usin...
